Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke on Tuesday expressed solidarity with his CJP colleagues Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka, saying they could not be with their families during the festive season.
CJP co-convenors Das and Ranka are in judicial custody over the Jantar Mantar trespassing case. Their five-day custody, which ended on Sunday, was extended by two days again on Monday.
Dipke said that while some people might “troll” him, he was getting emotional because he “cares for” Das and Ranka and considers them as his family. “Some people will troll me for getting emotional. But my emotions are my strength. I do it because those two are my family. I care for them. This is the love I have for them,” he said during a live stream on Instagram.
“Be with your families for the festivals. But please remember Saurav and Ashu when you are with your families because they both can’t be with their families,” Dipke added.
