NRIs in 40 Countries Have Downloaded Their CJP Cards. The Indian Diaspora Has Joined the Revolution.

cockroachparty.live is receiving traffic from 40 countries, and the downloads are not just from India. Indian diaspora communities in the UK, the US, Canada, the UAE, Singapore and Australia are generating their own Cockroach Janta Party member cards — and sharing them in WhatsApp groups far from home. The anger that built CJP is not confined to India's job market: it is the anger of every Indian who was told a degree would open doors, only to find the doors locked. Newsweek reports on why a satirical political card from Nagpur has become the most-shared piece of political identity content among the Indian diaspora in 2026.
