Indian rapper and independent music artist Santy Sharma has entered the ongoing national conversation surrounding the viral “Cockroach Janta Party” (CJP) movement by sharing a strongly worded statement on social media. His remarks, which focused on digital influence, online activism, and the role of social media in shaping youth opinions, have sparked widespread reactions across platforms including Instagram, X, and YouTube.
On his Instagram account, the rapper wrote- “Cockroach Janta Party feels more like internet drama than a serious movement.” He further stated, “Today, many people blindly follow trends without properly researching the background of individuals leading such campaigns. The founder of this so-called CJP has reportedly been associated with AAP and has shared multiple posts in the past that appeared critical of India itself.”
Sharma also wrote, “If someone truly claims to be nationalist, then the focus should be on solving real issues of India — development, employment, education, innovation, and national unity — instead of emotionally provoking Gen Z into street protests inspired by situations seen in countries like Nepal or Bangladesh.” Cockroach Janta Party Website Blocked, Viral Indian Political Parody Group Claims Official Censorship.
The rapper ended the note saying, “No political party is perfect, including BJP, and criticism is part of democracy. But creating unnecessary instability, outrage culture, and online propaganda is not the solution for India’s growth.”
The rapper stated that while criticism of governments and institutions is an essential part of democracy, emotionally charged online movements without constructive direction could contribute to social instability and polarization. He also highlighted concerns around the increasing influence of algorithm-driven content, meme culture, and viral outrage in modern political discussions.

“It is also concerning that a large portion of the social media support behind such movements reportedly comes from accounts linked to Pakistan, Bangladesh, and other anti-India narratives. Indians should stay aware of digital manipulation and propaganda tactics used online. India needs constructive discussions, not chaos driven by viral trends. I request the concerned authorities to monitor such activities carefully and take necessary steps to maintain peace, stability, and national interest,” Santy Sharma added.
