CJP Calls Parliament March Over NEET Row, Hunger Strike Continues

CJP urged students, parents and all concerned citizens to come together and support the Parliament march to secure justice for students who died by suicide following the cancellation of the NEET-UG exam for irregularities.

Wangchuk Urges Citizens To Join Protest

Wangchuk urged all the people to join the march as Parliament is the suitable platform to raise this issue. 

He said, "Thanks for all your messages to break my hunger strike, but that wouldn't help the 20 students who committed suicide, nor will that help protect the mountains of Ladakh or the rivers of India." 

He added, "If you really want to help, then do a little more than messages from comfy couches; come to Delhi and to Jantar Mantar on July 20, when the monsoon session of Indian Parliament starts. Together, we'll start a very peaceful march to the Sansad and appeal to our honourable MPs to take the issue up and find a lasting solution."

Police Accused Of Blocking Rain Protection

CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke posted a video on his official handle ‘X’, where he can be seen questioning the police personnel for not allowing to bring the tarpaulin at the protest site amid rains. In the clip, he is shown questioning why police personnel who are protected under a waterproof tent were in a dry state, while others who are in the open were enduring the rains and questioning why the tarpaulin was denied.

"Delhi Police is not allowing us to bring in tarpaulins. It rained all night, and we need them to protect the students who have been on a hunger strike for the past 12 days. For the last three days, we have been struggling to get the tarpaulins inside the protest site," he said

AISA Member Hospitalised After Health Worsens

All India Students Association (AISA) member Hrishikesh, who had also gone on indefinite hunger strike, has been hospitalised due to health complications after falling unconscious at RML Hospital. The organization claimed Hrishikesh has not been able to move for over 24 hours and is also unable to talk.

In a statement the AISA claimed the central government ignores the legitimate demands of students, parents and activists even though the health of hunger strikers has deteriorated and the situation is dire. The body reiterated the demand for the resignation of Pradhan.

NEET Exam Irregularities Fuel CJP Protests

The Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) is demanding the resignation of the Union Minister of Education over allegations of frequent and repeated examination irregularities and paper leaks impacting students’ futures.

The protest that began on June 20 comes amid reports of widespread irregularities in major national entrance exams including the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET-UG). The medical entrance exam, which was held on May 3, was cancelled following alleged paper leaks and was subsequently re-tested on June 21.
