Not even Abhijeet Dipke, founder of the Cockroach Janta Party, himself.
But the large-scale street protests in Delhi and other cities this past week show that young Indians are running out of patience with his ways.
It did not matter to them that the few young Indians who had shown up came from families that typically voted for the BJP.
This incensed young Indians, prompting thousands of them to turn up for a march to Parliament announced for July 20.
But young India has made it clear that it does not revere him as previous generations did.
