Tushar Gandhi Backs CJP Protest Against Bar Council
· India · Hindustan Times, Indian Express
Tushar Gandhi, the great-grandson of Mahatma Gandhi, has expressed support for the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) following his meeting with founder Abhijeet Dipke. Gandhi stated that the younger generation has genuinely embraced the values of the Father of the Nation through their recent agitation. The CJP protest seeks the resignation of Bar Council of India (BCI) Chairman Manan Mishra over a now-withdrawn order regarding NALSAR University of Law graduates. Tushar Gandhi also criticized the government's denial of violence during the July 20 'Chalo Sansad' march in Delhi. He noted that the movement has inspired younger students to seek accountability from authorities.
Why it matters
The public endorsement by Tushar Gandhi provides significant moral weight to the CJP's agitation, potentially intensifying the pressure on the Bar Council of India regarding its administrative decisions.
