Kolkata: Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) co-convenor Ashutosh Ranka on Tuesday alleged that due to political pressure they had to cancel their press meet in Kolkata as all the halls they had booked allegedly got threat calls.
CJP alleges pressure over meet
“Our scheduled Kolkata meet-up at Bharat Sabha hall in north Kolkata has now been cancelled after the owners received threats from BJP leaders. Six other halls refused, stating massive pressure from the state. It seems that the BJP is afraid of cockroaches. We will meet the cockroaches of Bengal in a bigger way soon,” said Ranka.
Earlier, the CJP had a press conference in the Kolkata’s Press Club but that got cancelled due to the electricity issue of the club from Monday late evening.
