Political analyst Tushar Gupta weighed in on the politics of protest, accusing the CJP of seeking disruption rather than democratic engagement. Referring to comparisons with unrest in Bangladesh and Albania, Gupta argued that the movement's messaging is inconsistent and warned against attempts to create instability in India. Defending the controversial cockroach effigy burning and police action against protesters, he claimed public sentiment is increasingly turning against what he described as "agents of chaos."
