‘PM Modi is scared of youth’: Abhijeet Dipke on way to Delhi for Jantar Mantar protest
PM Modi Is Scared of Youth, Says Abhijeet Dipke Before Delhi Protest
Indiadailyupdate.com – “PM Modi is scared of youth,” Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke said as he travelled from Mumbai to Delhi ahead of a planned protest at Jantar Mantar. Dipke said the gathering would be peaceful and described it as an assertion of democratic rights.
Speaking before the demonstration, Dipke criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi and alleged that restrictions affecting transport and movement in Delhi reflected concern over young people raising their voices. These are Dipke’s political claims and comments made ahead of the event.
“Narendra Modi is a dictator. He is scared, which is why he has closed the Delhi Metro, roads, everything. If he is this scared of the youth of the nation, why is he sitting in the PM's post?”
Youth participation at the centre of Dipke’s remarks
Dipke said PM Modi is scared of youth because younger citizens are increasingly willing to question the government and take part in public life. He argued that their concerns should be heard rather than ignored.
The CJP leader also linked youth participation to future electoral choices. According to Dipke, the issues raised by protesters could affect how people decide to vote.
“He is afraid as he fears that the people of this country will not vote for him after this.”
Jantar Mantar is a prominent location for public demonstrations in Delhi. Groups often gather there to highlight political, social or civic concerns, although large events can also require security, traffic and public-order arrangements.
Dipke cites Article 19 and the right to protest
Defending the planned action, Dipke said protesting peacefully is a fundamental right. He referred to Article 19 of the Constitution and said the CJP intended to hold a democratic, non-violent demonstration.
“Protesting is our fundamental right. Article 19 grants us the fundamental right to protest in a democratic and peaceful manner, and that is exactly what we intend to do.”
Article 19 includes protections relating to freedom of speech and expression, peaceful assembly and association, subject to restrictions permitted by law. References to these rights are common when citizens and political groups discuss the place of dissent in a democracy.
The claim that PM Modi is scared of youth forms part of Dipke’s broader criticism of the government. His comments also underline his view that young people should be able to express their opinions through lawful and peaceful public action.
Why the Jantar Mantar protest matters
The planned protest highlights the role that public gatherings can play in political debate. Demonstrations allow participants to voice grievances, show solidarity and seek attention for issues they consider important. Their effect often depends on whether organisers and participants keep the event peaceful, organised and focused.
Younger citizens engage in politics in many ways, including voting, volunteering, campaigning, debating policy and joining peaceful gatherings. Dipke’s statement that PM Modi is scared of youth places the proposed Delhi protest within that larger discussion about democratic participation and dissent.
