'Will emperor show his degree?' Abhijeet Dipke says he's ready to reveal scholarship, loan records
Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke challenged BJP leaders to make their educational qualifications public after an RTI was filed on his foreign study funding.
Dipke said he received a scholarship from Boston University and took an education loan for the remaining expenses, which he is still repaying.
He holds a Master of Science degree in Public Relations from Boston University and returned to India in June.
The RTI was filed by a Surat-based activist seeking an inquiry into the finances of Dipke's father, a retired Maharashtra government employee.
Dipke led CJP protests over the alleged NEET-UG 2026 paper leak, which led to the resignation of education minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
