New Delhi- The Cockroach Janta Party issued a strict seven-point charter of demands following a building collapse in Satya Niketan that left multiple casualties. The party demanded immediate accountability from the government regarding the hazardous conditions of student accommodations.
Reacting to the incident, Cockroach Janta Party founder and national convenor Abhijeet Dipke questioned official priorities regarding student safety following the Satya Niketan building collapse. Dipke noted that while the Prime Minister delivered a political speech at Delhi University invoking the term "Dimagi Naxal," he spoke very little about the state of educational infrastructure.
Speaking at the press conference today, CJP co-convener Saurav Das put forth the party's 7-point charter of demands to address structural neglect and institutional corruption:
1. Independent Criminal Investigation: Launch an independent criminal investigation of not just the owner, but the nexus between the owner, politicians, and other persons to investigate the larger PG Mafia.
2. Time-Bound Structural Audits: Begin an engineering-grade structural audit of buildings, especially schools, colleges, and student accommodations within a time-bound manner, rehabilitate students, and enforce norms by sealing illegal constructions and penalising the owners.
3. Transparency of Committee Records within 48 Hours: Publish all records of the 13 district committees constituted after the Hauz Rani incident of June 3, 2026, including its enforcement reports and Satya Niketan surveys within 48 hours. The government must clarify if Satya Niketan was surveyed, and why this major Delhi University student-PG hub was excluded if it was not.
4. Public Safety Database: Launch a public searchable database showing whether each student establishment is sanctioned and safe.
5. Expansion of University Hostels: Construct government hostels for Delhi University and other students, noting that only around 7,000 out of lakhs of students can currently be accommodated.
6. Immediate Financial Compensation: Provide immediate financial compensation of ₹1 Crore for the families of the dead and ₹20 Lakhs for the injured.
7. Fixing Ministerial Accountability: Fix direct ministerial accountability on Ashish Sood, the Urban Development & Planning and Education Minister of Delhi, and answer why the work of the 13 district committees wound down under his administration.
The Cockroach Janta Party demands immediate action on these points and asserts that student safety cannot be compromised any longer by administrative failures.
