Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke has responded to allegations about his educational background, saying he is prepared to display his Boston University degree and scholarship documents publicly.
Speaking on a video uploaded to X, Dipke refuted the online claims that he did not study in the US-based university.
CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke offered to publicly present his Boston University degree and scholarship documents to counter allegations about his education, while also promoting his ‘School Theek Karo’ initiative.
“I have the documents to prove it and want the Prime Minister to do the same,” he said. “I will show you my certificate and scholarship letter from Boston University while questioning why he has not done the same.”
Dipke shared two videos, one showing his final day at Boston University and another of one of his professors conducting a class.
In the video, Dipke also accused critics of trying to uncover fake documents while simultaneously attempting to hack his Boston University account.

” While some of you are questioning my documents, others are trying to illegally access my Boston University account,” he accused. “Here is an article by BU about me and my scholarship. Why is Delhi University not naming Modi?”
The controversy followed after social media users questioned whether Dipke had actually been admitted to and studied at Boston University. According to one post, there were no examinations at the university for the Fall 2024 semester, while Dipke was in Chicago on December 11, 2024, preparing to return to India for the elections, which would have been impossible if he had exams that month.
Further criticism followed as to how Dipke was able to afford his studies in the US.
A Surat-based Right to Information (RTI) activist applied for an inquiry into the financial records of Bhagwanrao Dipke, a junior engineer, Dipke’s father.
Earlier, Dipke had said he was admitted to the university on a scholarship and had taken a student loan that is yet to be repaid. “Anyone can follow up on my educational loans,” he added.
Boston University published an article about me for being their alumnus.
Why doesn’t DU proudly celebrate Modi as their alumnus? He is, after all, the Prime Minister of India.
Shouldn’t they be flexing about it instead of trying to hide his degree?https://t.co/Gvzj6mBZap

At the same time, Dipke has focused his efforts on his ‘School Theek Karo’ (Make Schools Better) campaign, which seeks to improve government education in rural India. Recently, his team conducted an audit at a government school in Santuk Pimpri village, Hingoli district, Maharashtra. The CJP founder interacted with students and inquired about the state of school infrastructure.
