Kejriwal simp and fanboy, propagandist masquerading as a journalist, Saurav Das shared on his X handle that he was thrilled to join the ‘Cockroach Janta Party’ as its Chief Spokesperson, on 3 June 2026.
I am thrilled to join the Cockroach Janta Party as its Chief Spokesperson. There comes a moment when the young of a nation realise they are angry because they were promised a future, and then mocked, moralised, and treated as disposables for asking where that… https://t.co/7X20MDJYkP

Let us take a look at his opinions and beliefs.
Article 370 Abrogation
In a 2023 post, Das approvingly quoted then-Pakistan Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa criticizing India’s judiciary and the impending Article 370 verdict. Das went further, calling the abrogation “an open-and-shut case, a grave assault on the Indian constitution” and warning that upholding it would mark the “downfall” of the Supreme Court. This came even as Pakistan-backed terrorism had plagued Kashmir for decades under the shield of Article 370’s special status.
Championing Pakistan-Aligned Narratives On Kashmir
Das’s commentary consistently portrays post-2019 Jammu and Kashmir as a site of “human rights violations” and “muzzling of the free press” by the Indian government. He has amplified stories of journalists facing NIA/UAPA cases, expressed solidarity with those arrested in terror-related probes, and highlighted anonymous reports decrying “normalcy” in the region. While raising legitimate questions about governance is part of journalism, Das’s selective focus — ignoring the sharp decline in stone-pelting, infiltration attempts, and tourist influx post-abrogation — aligns strikingly with Islamabad’s propaganda line that India’s integration move was illegitimate.
He criticized the Supreme Court’s unanimous 2023 verdict upholding the abrogation as a blow to federalism and a sign of judicial decline. In doing so, he framed the full constitutional integration of India’s own territory — long disrupted by cross-border terrorism from Pakistan — as an act of central overreach rather than a necessary correction to a temporary provision that had enabled separatism.
Love For Terror Accused Umar Khalid
Das has been a vocal advocate for Umar Khalid and others in the 2020 Delhi riots “larger conspiracy” case, repeatedly calling charges “frivolous,” highlighting prolonged incarceration, and questioning UAPA applications — including against Kashmiri students allegedly raising pro-Pakistan slogans.
He has portrayed such cases as misuse of anti-terror laws rather than legitimate security measures against radicalization often stoked from across the border.
Hate For Ram Mandir
He spoke against Ram Mandir reconstruction too. He called December 6 a “sad day”.
He wrote in leftist magazines and news media. Saurav Das routinely writes for leftist publications like Article 14, Frontline, The Caravan magazine, Al Jazeera, The Wire, The Hindu etc.
Love For Terrorists
He wrote a piece supporting Hamas terrorist group. He also referred to terrorist don Atiq Ahmed as ‘Muslim ex MP’ and raised ‘rights concerns’ over his killing on live TV.
In the same piece, he wrote the attackers chanted Jai Shri Ram and referred it to as a “religious slogan that has now become a war cry for Hindu groups in their campaign against India’s Muslim minority.”
CJP’s chief spokesperson is a writer at Hamas supporter Al Jazeera.
He has written an article in support of Don Atiq Ahmed, and he claimed that he was killed because he was a Muslim.

Funding Scrutiny
Das has earlier faced scrutiny for funding links to foreign and non-governmental foundations. A 2023 exposé by The Pamphlet showed that he received support from the Thakur Family Foundation for public health reporting, though his published articles reportedly extended to political topics beyond health policy.
The Thakur Family Foundation (TFF), which presents itself as an organisation promoting “public health and civil liberties,” has funded multiple Indian media outlets and journalists, including individuals associated with Alt News, The Wire, and Moneylife Foundation, under the banner of health-related reporting. These grants coincided with the publication of articles critical of India’s pharmaceutical industry, traditional medicine systems, and domestic COVID-19 response, while appearing to favour Western vaccine and corporate narratives.
TFF has also been linked to the US-based testing firm Valisure, which released reports questioning the quality of Indian-made drugs. The pattern of financial support, editorial influence, and timing of campaigns indicates an organised effort to erode confidence in Indian generics and Ayurveda. During the COVID-19 pandemic, TFF-funded content appeared in The Wire and Alt News, amplifying narratives that portrayed India’s pandemic management and indigenous pharmaceutical initiatives in a negative light.
Saurav Das who seems to write on “public health” only wrote articles that were critical of the government policies in this space and not otherwise.
Additionally, when India banned anti-Hindu website Hindutva Watch, Saurav Das published a propaganda piece in Article 14 about India’s ‘censorship rules’.
