BJP Panicked Over Losing Political Ground, Says Analyst Sanjay Kapoor on Massive Delhi Protest Clampdown
Heavy police barricades and security personnel guarding key intersections in New Delhi during the government's crackdown on the CJP protest on Saturday.

Indian journalist and political analyst Sanjay Kapoor has asserted that the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is panicked by the Cockroach Janata Party's (CJP) youth-led movement, realizing that the broader political tide is turning against the incumbent government.

Speaking to international news outlet Al Jazeera, the Editor of Hardnews emphasized that the Modi administration's reaction—suspending train routes, blocking buses, closing metro station gates, and turning stadiums into makeshift detention centers—reflects widespread anxiety over losing political control.

Kapoor noted that it is astonishing to witness a government backed by a parliamentary majority react with such fear toward peaceful demonstrators attempting to reach Jantar Mantar. He further observed that public sentiment among those mobilizing indicates that the central government is losing its core acceptability, making any future return to power increasingly precarious. The statements come as CJP activists, following the arrest of top organizers and opposition leaders, carry out decentralized demonstrations by converting police blockades and transit halt points across the capital into local assembly zones.
