Abhijeet Dipke, Neha Bora Press Conference Disrupted by Slogans

A joint press conference featuring Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke and All India Students Association (AISA) chief Neha Bora turned chaotic in New Delhi on October 15, 2026. The event was disrupted by people shouting slogans, including demands to stop the proceedings. The confrontation unfolded amid growing tensions surrounding protests against the Election Commission and its voter-list revision exercise.

The press conference took place as CJP and its supporters continued to challenge the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Protesters have raised concerns about alleged irregularities in the process and demanded accountability from Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The Election Commission’s handling of the revision has become a major point of political contention.

During the event, the interruption escalated into a verbal confrontation. Neha Bora reportedly called on the organisers to remove those disrupting the press conference. Videos and media reports described a tense atmosphere, although the precise identities and affiliations of everyone shouting slogans were not clearly established in the available reporting.

Dipke has been among the prominent voices criticising the authorities over the handling of demonstrations and the detention of protesters. The CJP-led campaign has sought to mobilise public support against the SIR exercise, arguing that concerns about voter inclusion and electoral transparency require answers.

These criticisms reflect the campaign’s position and should not be treated as established findings of wrongdoing.

Bora also expressed solidarity with journalists who she alleged had faced mistreatment while covering the protests.

Her remarks added another dimension to the press conference, which addressed both the political dispute and concerns about the treatment of demonstrators and media workers. The allegations require independent verification, and the available reports do not establish that every claim raised at the event has been proven.

The disruption came ahead of CJP’s planned “Lehra Do Tiranga” gathering in Delhi on October 16. The incident highlights the increasingly confrontational atmosphere surrounding the campaign against the voter-list revision process.

However, without confirmed information about the people responsible for the slogans or their motives, the disruption should not be attributed to any particular political group.
