New Delhi: The Delhi high court on Tuesday (July 7) ordered the unblocking of the X account of Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) saying that the Union government’s concern was no longer relevant as the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (Undergraduate) (NEET (UG)) re-examination was over.A bench of Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma allowed the plea of CJP founder Abhijit Dipke.During the hearing, Solicitor General of India Tushar Mehta said that the primary concern of the Union government was that the satirical party’s posts can lead to chaos among students and parents during the NEET exam, Live Law reported.On May 21, the account of CJP was blocked hours after it gained 8.8 million followers on Instagram, overtaking the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) 8.7 million followers. The Indian Express had reported quoting a senior government official that the action was taken after Intelligence Bureau (IB) raised “national security concerns”.Also read: ‘Your Silence is Admission that You View Youth as Nothing More Than Pests’: CJP Writes Open Letter to ModiThe account was withheld under Section 69 (A) of the Information Technology Act, 2000, which allows the Union government to order the blocking of public access to online information.

Later, the CJI issued a clarification saying that the media “misquoted” him.
