CBI Probe Petition on “Cockroach Janata Party” Reaches Supreme Court?

A petition has been filed in the Supreme Court seeking a CBI probe into the so-called Cockroach Janata Party. Allegations were raised over a satirical online campaign using the CJP name against remarks made by the Chief Justice during court proceedings. The petition also demanded an investigation into fake law degrees.

Advocate Goswami brought to the CJI’s notice that such campaigns are damaging the dignity of the judiciary. However, Justice Surya Kant stated that the matter should not be taken emotionally and also observed that there is no urgency in hearing this petition.
