Cockroach Janta Party

The Cockroach Janta Party which rose as a political satire struck the chord of the Indian Gen Z and what began as the "Voice of the Lazy & Unemployed" on May 16 became overnight so popular that it had over 22.4 million followers by May 30, surpassing greatly the numbers of all political parties. This spectacular growth reflects the present state of the mind of youth who distrust the politicians and are fearful of what the future holds for them. They speak for the common mind disregarding the religious overtones the current politicians tend to show and show genuine concern for the grim economic scenario despite the rosy words of the contemporary political mind-set. It remains to be seen how the movement will grow and whether it would mature into a valid political party.
