A video showing Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke in a heated exchange with a police sub-inspector went viral on Friday.
Dipke, who led the NEET paper leak protests at Jantar Mantar, confronted the officer deployed as part of his security detail at his home in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Maharashtra. He accused the officer of being rude to visitors and trying to restrict who could enter his residence in the Waluj MIDC area, according to news agency PTI.
Dipke demanded the officer's removal.
He also claimed that state CID personnel in plainclothes were roaming near his home and then reporting in a social media group named 'Hit Spray', PTI reported.
Two separate videos of the incident circulated on social media. In a 56-second clip, Dipke can be heard reprimanding the officer, identified only as Suresh.
"What is the problem in allowing people to come into my home when I am asking them to come in? Why are you behaving like the Delhi police?" Dipke told the PSI, who was in civilian clothes.
"No problem has occurred till today. I am seeing you for the first time. You [police] will not tell me whom I should meet and whom I should not meet," Dipke said, according to PTI.
"You please go out, I don't want you in my house," the 30-year-old activist told the officer.
In the second video, Dipke complained to a senior police official over the phone.
"A PSI named Suresh has come here, and he is very rude to people coming to meet me. He is telling people to go out. Is this being done deliberately? I don't want him; remove him from here," Dipke said.
He also alleged that a reporter told him CID personnel were spotted near his home. When police tried to remove them, they revealed their identity. The reporter also saw a WhatsApp group open on one of the CID personnel's phones named 'Hit Spray', and that they were sending reports from there, Dipke claimed.
DCP Pankaj Atulkar, whose jurisdiction covers the Waluj MIDC area, has not responded to PTI's requests for comment.
