The claim that Prime Minister Narendra Modi warned students to “stay away from Cockroach Janta Party (CJP)” is false. There is no verified evidence that he made such a statement in any official speech, interview, press release, or social media post.
Here’s what is known:
- During the ongoing CJP-led protests over exam paper leaks and education reforms, PM Modi released a video message acknowledging students’ concerns and announced that the government would introduce stricter measures against paper leaks, including fast-track courts and tougher punishments for offenders. However, he did not ask students to stay away from the Cockroach Janta Party.
- Recent official communications from the Prime Minister’s Office, including interactions with students, focus on education, reducing exam stress, and encouraging learning. There is no official record of him telling youth to avoid CJP.
- The government has recently warned about manipulated and AI-generated political videos circulating online. For example, the PIB Fact Check unit debunked a fabricated video falsely attributed to Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, highlighting the spread of misinformation during the protests.
Verdict: False
There is no credible evidence that PM Narendra Modi said:
“Students, stay away from Cockroach Janta Party.”
If you’ve seen this claim in a social media post, image, or video, it’s likely either:
- an edited or fabricated post,
- a misleading caption, or
- an unverified claim lacking support from any official or credible news source.
If you have the specific video, screenshot, or social media post making this claim, I can help verify whether it has been edited or taken out of context.
