Team Earth Warrior Clarifies Stance on Yamuna Cleaning Drive: 'We Are Independent'

In a recent viral video showing a "cockroach cleaning drive" in the Yamuna and drain coverings, environmental activists were seen holding placards with cockroach symbols. The video sparked widespread speculation about a potential physical campaign by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP). However, the group behind the initiative, Team Earth Warrior, has released a public statement clarifying their independent status.
A 7-Year Legacy of Independent Environmental Work
Team Earth Warrior stated unequivocally: "We are an independent group that has been working on river pollution and environmental issues for the last 7 years." They emphasized that their recent use of the cockroach symbol was meant to draw attention to the grim reality of water pollution and civic neglect, independent of recent political developments.
Strictly Non-Political Stance
Addressing the growing rumors, the group made it clear that they maintain a strict distance from political affiliations. "We are not related to any political party, including the Cockroach Party or Cockroach Janta Party. Please do not associate us with any political party," their statement read.
While Team Earth Warrior is happy for their videos, photos, and research to be used for educational and awareness purposes, they drew a hard line against political co-optation. "We strictly prohibit any political party from using our videos for political motives. Do not make false claims about us. Anyone found wrongly using or misrepresenting our videos will face legal action," the group warned.
CJP's Response: Respect and Support
The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has formally acknowledged the clarification and expressed its deep appreciation for Team Earth Warrior's dedication to cleaning the Yamuna. CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke and the CJP community have urged supporters to respect the group's apolitical stance and refrain from using their footage for political messaging.
"We stand by anyone doing the hard work on the ground," a CJP spokesperson shared online. "Team Earth Warrior is doing a phenomenal job. We respect their independence and applaud their 7 years of service to the environment."
