CJP Founder Abhijeet Dipke Counters Mary Millben Over US Funding Allegations, Questions Foreign Interference
Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke has questioned foreign interference in India's internal affairs after American singer Mary Millben alleged that US-based donors opposed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi were funding the outfit. Millben urged Indian youth to organise peaceful protests against the CJP as tensions continue over electoral roll revisions.
Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke on Wednesday, October 14, rejected American singer Mary Millben’s claim that the outfit receives funding from US-based donors opposed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, questioning the involvement of foreign nationals in India’s internal affairs. Millben, a vocal supporter of Modi, has urged Indian youth to organise peaceful protests against the party.
The exchange comes amid protests involving the CJP and opposition groups over alleged irregularities in the revision of electoral rolls and demands for the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Millben alleged that US-based donors were backing the CJP to oppose Modi’s leadership, while Dipke questioned why Americans were being drawn into India’s domestic political debate. The funding allegation has not been independently established in the reports reviewed. ‘CJP Receiving Funds From US’: American Singer Mary Millben Claims Foreign Plot Behind Delhi Stir.
Abhijeet Dipke Counters Mary Millben Over US Funding Allegations
Why is Modi seeking the support of Americans to discredit his own countrymen?
Who gave foreign nationals the right to interfere in India’s internal affairs?
We are more than capable of dealing with our own issues. We don’t need outsiders interfering in our country’s affairs.

Abhijeet Dipke Questions Foreign Involvement In India’s Internal Affairs
Responding to Millben’s remarks in a post on X, Dipke questioned why Prime Minister Narendra Modi was “seeking the support of Americans to discredit his own countrymen?"
“Who gave foreign nationals the right to interfere in India’s internal affairs? We are more than capable of dealing with our own issues. We don’t need outsiders interfering in our country’s affairs", he added.
Dipke’s response came hours after Millben made her allegations about the party’s purported funding. Her remarks linked the alleged financial support to donors opposed to Modi and his political leadership.
Mary Millben Alleges Funding From US-Based Donors
In her post on X, Millben appealed directly to young Indians, urging them to speak out against the CJP.
“To all the beautiful young patriots in India: This is not the time to be silent," Millben wrote in a post on X.
She alleged that the CJP was “being funded by donors in the US who are against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and your future under his leadership".
Millben also defended the Prime Minister, citing his political tenure and electoral record.
“Do not fear, my young patriots. Your Prime Minister, who has served India for 25 years, 12 years as Prime Minister, elected three consecutive terms, is not going to bow to disruptive forces from my country," she said.
Her comments reflected her support for Modi and her opposition to what she described as efforts by foreign donors to undermine conservative political leaders.
Singer Claims Donors Follow A Global Pattern
Millben further alleged that the donors followed a recurring strategy to challenge conservative leaders in different countries.
“And these select donors have a pattern globally – target conservative global leaders, find an U.S. educated person from the country, radicalize them, send them back to the country, and fund them to start chaos and destruction. None of them have been successful but have impacted the development and governance of the country."
The allegation was made in Millben’s social media post. The material reviewed for this report does not independently establish the claimed funding arrangement or the alleged pattern of activity.
Millben Calls For Peaceful Counter-Protests
Urging Indian youth to organise against the CJP, Millben called for a counter-movement that she said would defend democracy and freedom.
“It is time for a new voice in #India, born, raised, educated on the soil of India, to RISE UP, organize, and peacefully protest the disruptive spirit of the Cockroach Party. There should always be a counter movement to uphold democracy and freedom", she wrote.
The appeal comes as the CJP and opposition groups remain involved in protests over the electoral roll revision process and their demand for Gyanesh Kumar’s resignation.
The dispute over the alleged US funding has added another dimension to the political confrontation. While Millben has called for peaceful opposition to the party, Dipke has challenged the role of foreign nationals in India’s domestic affairs. The central funding allegation remains unverified in the reports reviewed.
