Union Minister Jitendra Singh has launched a blistering attack on Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), alleging that its Abhijeet Dipke and Ashutosh Ranka are receiving funds from anti-India organisations within and outside the country.
Singh's remark came while addressing media on Nov 3 in Karnataka's Bengaluru where he claimed that there is enough evidence to show Dipke is being funded by unauthorised sources, highlighting that foreign-funded NGOs and anti-India forces are manufacturing this narrative.
Highlighting specific financial channels and targeting figures associated with the campaign, Singh said, "There is enough evidence to show that they are being funded by unauthorised sources, by anti-India NGOs, and anti-India organisations within and outside the country. The foreign-funded NGOs, deep state operatives and anti-India forces are manufacturing this narrative.
Speaking to the media, the minister said Abhijeet Dipke has been receiving funds from USA-based donors, Ashutosh Ranka, paid by Pakistani politicians."
CJP slams Jitendra Singh
The Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) hit back at Union Minister Singh on Thursday, rejecting his allegations and questioning the credibility of statements made by people holding high constitutional and political positions.
In a post on X, the CJP accused the minister of making unsubstantiated claims without being held accountable.
“This is the shameful reality. A Union Minister can say anything and get away with it. This is precisely why even the words of those occupying the highest chairs hold no value today,” the party said.
The CJP also challenged the credibility of the allegations levelled against individuals associated with its campaign, taking aim at the minister's remarks and the lack of accountability surrounding them.
CJP leaders Ashutosh Ranka too reacted to the allegations and mockingly said why the Modi-led government was negotiating with CJP, if the party had links to Pakistan or the US.
In a further dig at the minister, Ranka in another tweet wrote that paper leaks in India, school closure, alleged vote theft and joblessness in the country is also powered by the neighbouring country.
Meanwhile, Karnataka Home Minister Priyank Kharge hit back at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over allegations of foreign funding to the Congress, and questioned the evidence behind the claims.
