Jana Sena Party president and Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan’s ongoing campaign in New Delhi, organised in the name of “Jana Sena Party for National Integration,” is said to be aimed at countering the rise of the so-called Cockroach Janata Party, which has been questioning the present state of affairs in the country.
On Monday, Pawan Kalyan launched a sharp attack on what he described as a “cockroach party,” warning that seemingly insignificant forces could pose a serious threat to national unity if left unchecked.
Addressing a party meeting in New Delhi, Pawan Kalyan invoked a verse from the famous Telugu literary work *Sumati Satakam* to explain how small but organised groups could create a major impact.
Referring to the proverb, “Balavanthamaina Sarpamu Chalicheemala Chetha Chikki Chavade” — meaning that even a powerful snake can be killed by a swarm of ants — the Jana Sena chief cautioned people against underestimating forces that seek to divide society and weaken the country’s integrity.
“Many people assume that some individuals or organisations are too small to matter. We think they have no stature and can be ignored. But recent developments show otherwise. A ‘cockroach party’ has emerged, reminding me of the lesson from *Sumati Satakam*. Even tiny ants can bring down a powerful snake when they act together,” Pawan Kalyan said.
However, the Deputy Chief Minister appears to have misinterpreted the verse.
It actually conveys a different message: no individual or institution should consider itself invincible, as even the mighty can be brought down by ordinary people when they unite in large numbers.
In a way, the verse could be interpreted as a subtle message to the Bharatiya Janata Party and its alliance partners that, despite considering themselves powerful and unbeatable, they could be defeated if millions of people rose against them.
And that appears to be what the Cockroach Janata Party intends to do by mobilising public opinion against the present establishment.
Pawan Kalyan, however, seems to believe that the Jana Sena Party can counter organisations such as the CJP by holding meetings in New Delhi and sending a strong message.
“Certain forces are prepared to sacrifice national unity for narrow political interests. The meeting in Delhi was organised to ensure that people do not fall victim to divisive ideologies and separatist tendencies,” he said.
He said millions of people coming together could create a tremendous impact, either for good or for bad.
“At a time when efforts are being made to create divisions in society, we should not become partners in such agendas. We must resist them, confront them and fight them collectively,” he asserted.
Pawan Kalyan emphasised that unity remained the strongest weapon against forces attempting to fragment society.
He called upon citizens and political activists to remain vigilant and work together to safeguard the country’s integrity.
