We were called cockroaches.
We kept count.
CockroachJantaParty.news (CJP.NEWS) is an independent data-journalism and testimony archive documenting the lived reality of India's unemployed and underemployed youth.
We publish numbers the press release does not. We keep quotes the system would like you to forget. We are non-partisan, ad-free, and accountable only to the people whose stories we carry.
Roshan Singh
Roshan Singh is the founder of CJP.NEWS — a passionate developer and a self-described unemployed cockroach. He started this project after the now-infamous "they live like cockroaches" remark, with one goal: keep the receipts so the system can never claim it didn't know.
He writes code, runs the archive, moderates submissions, and answers every email himself. There is no team. There is no investor. There is only the swarm.
What we publish
- Sourced, dated data on youth unemployment in India
- Anonymous testimony from people the system failed
- On-the-record quotes from officials and institutions
- A graveyard of ideas killed by policy, taxation and apathy
