Neha Bora, President of All India Students Association i.e. AISA, emerged after the movement that started at Jantar Mantar in Delhi in the month of July.
Cockroach Janata Party founder Abhijeet Deepke also came into limelight at the national level after this movement. Both are youth leaders but their organizations are different. Both have also protested separately several times.
In such a situation, many people on social media start comparing them to see who is more mature. On Saturday, some similar posts were posted on social media and along with Deepke, Neha has also responded to these posts.
An X user named Amok posted a picture of Neha Bora and wrote, "Maturity is when you realize that Neha Bora is more talented than Abhijeet Deepke." She is an absolute icon of Gen Z and her swag is amazing." Reposting this post, Abhijeet has written - I agree with this.
Shortly after this post, Neha wrote on Instagram, "Not comparison, solidarity." We fight together against this." In response, Abhijeet wrote - Long live Inquilab.
But there are many people who are seeing both of them together. Economist Jayati Ghosh has written on X, "Our hopes for India's future rest on fearless and committed youth like Neha Bora and Abhijit Deepke."
Whom are Saurabh and Ashutosh targeting?
CJP co-coordinator Ashutosh Ranka has written in a post that people calling themselves liberals are busy rejecting Abhijeet.
He wrote in a post on The funny thing is that this entire ecosystem exists only on Twitter, but somehow it feels that it is only its responsibility to protect democracy.

Reposting this post of Ashutosh, CJP leader Saurabh Das has written, "This is a big problem. A certain section, not only BJP but also another party, believes that it is only their responsibility to "save India and save the Constitution". He considers himself a liberal and a self-proclaimed contractor of the Constitution.
“This is a very bitter ecosystem, which sometimes appears even more aggressive than the BJP ecosystem. They should understand that they cannot maintain their influence by dividing people through such strategies. Their massive failures in the last several years have led us to this situation, where now the youth have to show the way. So they should keep quiet about us and focus on ways to support the youth. These are completely ignorant people.

Abhijeet Dipke had started 'Cockroach Janata Party' in May this year. This social media account was started as a satire in response to Chief Justice Surya Kant's remarks in which he called some of the unemployed youth of the country "cockroaches". However, he later clarified and said that his comments were misrepresented.
Before gaining recognition among students, Deepke was known for his work on creating digital political messages, narratives and online campaign strategies. He has a graduation degree in Journalism from Pune and a two-year master's degree in Public Relations from Boston University.
After raising voice in support of students online for several days, Deepke returned to India in June this year and led CJP's first demonstration at Jantar Mantar. After this, similar demonstrations took place in other cities also. CJP then launched a massive protest at Jantar Mantar in Delhi, demanding accountability over the NEET-UG paper leak and alleged irregularities in other examinations. After the announcement of Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation from the post of Education Minister, Deepke had written on X, "Now I am going to take a nap for a while. Will meet you all in a while."
Neha Bora
Sonam Wangchuk was not alone in going on an indefinite fast at Jantar Mantar. Three students of All India Students Association were also with him. These included Neha Bora, Manish Kumar and Amen Amitoj. His fast ended before Wangchuk's fast.
Neha Bora is a PhD researcher in JNU. Regarding the protests at Jantar Mantar, Neha had said in an interview with Frontline, "A large number of posters were put up at Jantar Mantar also. It was said in them, "You believe in Godse, we believe in Bhagat Singh. This is the basic difference between you and me and that is why you should go." People continuously said that those who believe in Godse will not rule this country.
"In this, the legacy of RSS was being talked about in which it is accused of betraying the people. It was being said that they are standing in favor of Godse and we are in favor of Bhagat Singh. It was being discussed that their politics of division has brought the country to such a situation where paper leak is no longer a big deal, but the Hindu-Muslim narrative suddenly grabs people's attention. People were continuously talking about these issues.
Neha had said, "I think these demonstrations have shown what the youth of the country no longer want from the current government. I think that what this movement gave, the lessons that this movement taught all of us, were far beyond the fact that even fascists can be held accountable. That's why when I came back from the hunger strike and was speaking on the mic, this is what I said: The youth should remember this feeling - what they are feeling right now, the feeling of fighting not against each other, but for each other. This is what we have learned in the last 12 years.
