India: Cockroach Janta Party alleges mass detentions ahead of Delhi protest

The Cockroach Janta Party, a fringe political group, claims authorities are conducting mass arrests ahead of its planned October 10 protest in Delhi, with founder Abhijeet Dipke accusing the Modi government of intimidation. The claims are unverified and the group's influence is marginal, but the allegation of preemptive detentions, if true, would signal heightened political repression ahead of a protest. The situation is developing, with no independent confirmation of the arrests.
