IB Behind Hacking of ‘Cockroach Janata Party’ Account: Nana Patole

Congress leader Nana Patole has made serious allegations, claiming that the central government is following a policy of suppression to control rising public anger in the country.

He alleged that the central intelligence agency (IB) was involved in the blocking and hacking of a social media handle called “Cockroach Janata Party,” suggesting that efforts are being made to silence dissenting voices on social media.

Patole claimed that the IB had submitted a confidential report to the central government stating that public dissatisfaction against the government is increasing significantly across the country. The report, according to him, also warned that if this anger is not controlled in time, the situation could go out of control. He further alleged that after this report, Prime Minister Narendra Modi instructed action against the concerned social media accounts.

He also said that the government cannot stop people’s voices by shutting down social media accounts. According to him, farmers, unemployed youth, the poor, and common citizens are strongly dissatisfied with the central government, and this anger may erupt on a large scale at any time.

Patole also strongly criticised Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis over his Shirdi visit. He alleged that Fadnavis’s Mumbai-to-Shirdi journey on the Vande Bharat Express was done only to create a public image and for making social media reels, rather than for genuine governance reasons.

He further said that earlier motorcycle rides from Mantralaya to Vidhan Bhavan were also conducted only for publicity. Patole also questioned the claim of fuel saving, stating that while the Chief Minister travelled to Shirdi by train, the onward journey to Nagpur would be by road with a large convoy, involving vehicles from multiple districts, leading to significant diesel consumption. He demanded that the government explain the actual fuel savings versus public expenditure.
