Cockroach Janta Party youth movement holds first protest in New Delhi.

The Cockroach Janta Party, a mock political party that has amassed roughly 22 million Instagram followers since mid-May, held its first in-person protest in New Delhi on Saturday. Founder Abhijeet Dipke returned from the United States to lead the demonstration against Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government, citing youth unemployment and examination paper leaks. Dozens of police officers gathered near Jantar Mantar in central Delhi as protesters demanded the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
