The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) issues a demand for the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar within 48 hours, saying his role has undermined voter rights. The party threatens nationwide agitation if the demand is not met, describing the action as “Jantar Mantar 2.0.”

Both outlets link the party’s call to claims that electoral processes are rigged and that citizens’ voting rights are compromised. While they agree on the resignation demand and the 48-hour deadline, the Times of India also adds additional demands, including an immediate halt to upcoming elections and the repeal of a 2023 law related to Election Commissioner appointments. The Hindu focuses more narrowly on the resignation threat and the planned nationwide agitation, without detailing the further policy demands.

The reporting reflects the same core protest position but differs in how broadly it lists CJP’s stated conditions and additional requests.
