FAQ
FAQ on protest supporters
How this directory was built from the posts archive. Pair it with the full timeline and posts archive.
What is on the Voices page?
An independent directory of 55 public people and groups who supported the CJP / Jantar Mantar protest, drawn mainly from this site’s Twitter / X archive through 22 July 2026. Each entry lists when they supported, how (visit, post, phone, Parliament, video, etc.), and a link to the archive post when one exists.
Which celebrities supported the CJP protest?
Archive-backed entries include Prakash Raj and Shabana Azmi (Jantar Mantar visits), Imran Khan, Sonakshi Sinha, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Swara Bhaskar, Shekhar Suman, Atul Kulkarni, Kunal Kamra, Raghu Ram, Riteish Deshmukh, and Naseeruddin Shah (video after Sansad Chalo), among others documented on this page.
Which politicians visited Jantar Mantar in support?
Documented visits include Mahua Moitra, Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia, Atishi, Dimple Yadav, Uddhav and Aaditya Thackeray, Sharad Pawar, Sanjay Raut, Arvind Sawant, Supriya Sule, Rakesh Tikait, Chandrashekhar Azad, and others — each with dated support actions and archive post links on this page.
How was this list built?
By scanning archive posts and editor notes for visits, thank-yous, solidarity statements, phone outreach, party endorsements, and related mentions — then consolidating duplicate people into one profile with dated support actions. The list is not exhaustive; send a correction if someone is missing with a public source.
Does listing someone mean they endorse this website?
No. This is independent documentation. Being listed means a public support action appears in sources we cite — usually an archive post — not that the person is affiliated with this site.

Are CJP organisers listed here?
Core organisers (Dipke, Wangchuk, spokespersons, Angmo) are covered on the homepage Leaders section and timeline. This Voices page focuses on external solidarity — celebrities, politicians, activists, farmers, creators, and groups who backed the protest.
