CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke said the party chose Mumbai for its protest against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged voter-roll manipulation. Dipke pointed to BJP’s nine Lok Sabha seats in Maharashtra in 2024, followed by its emergence as the single-largest party with 132 seats in the Assembly elections six months later. He said, “Delhi throne is guarded by Maharashtra.”
