The Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) is set to continue its protests against Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, demanding his resignation over alleged examination irregularities.
The CJP's founder, Abhijeet Dipke, announced that the party will hold a protest in Pune on Thursday, followed by an indefinite sit-in at Jantar Mantar in Delhi from June 20 if Pradhan does not step down.
The protests are a response to alleged irregularities in the NEET-UG paper leak and issues faced by Class 12 students due to the on-screen marking system.
Dipke has urged supporters to turn up in large numbers for the Pune protest, which will be attended by activist and educator Sonam Wangchuk.
If Pradhan does not resign, the CJP has threatened to launch an indefinite sit-in at Jantar Mantar, calling it a national issue affecting millions of families and young people.
