CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: A growing youth-led movement under the banner of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) staged a high-profile protest at New Delhi’s Jantar Mantar, drawing attention to concerns over examination irregularities, student grievances, and accountability in India’s education system. The demonstration was led by CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke, who returned from the United States to participate in the campaign and demand the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. Protesters highlighted issues linked to NEET, CBSE, CUET, and other competitive examinations, arguing that repeated controversies have affected the future of millions of students. Organizers emphasized peaceful and democratic participation, urging supporters to carry the national flag, remain disciplined, and avoid confrontations. The movement, which began as an online satire initiative, has rapidly transformed into a major youth-driven platform attracting significant social media support and public attention. Authorities deployed additional security arrangements around protest sites as large crowds gathered in the national capital. The campaign has also received backing from several public figures and activists, further amplifying its visibility. Political observers view the protest as a reflection of broader concerns among young Indians regarding education, employment opportunities, and governance. The developments have intensified public discussion about reforms, transparency, and accountability within the country’s examination and education framework.
