Ramdas Athawale invites Abhijit Dipti to join RPI(A)

Union Minister Ramdas Athawale, leader of the Republican Party of India (A), has extended an invitation to Abhijit Dipti to join his party. Dipti is the founder of the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP), which has recently held protests in cities like Mumbai and Delhi regarding the NEET paper leak and demands for the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.

Athawale, who serves as the Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment, expressed confidence in the longevity of the Modi government, stating that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will remain the leader through the 2029 elections. He encouraged Dipti, noting his Dalit background and roots in Maharashtra, to join the RPI(A) to strengthen the party with Ambedkarite ideals and attract younger members.
