The Cockroach Janta Party has called for ₹1 crore compensation for NEET paper leak-linked suicide cases in an open letter to Prime Minister Modi.
Party founder Abhijeet Dipke noted that 11 NEET aspirants died by suicide in the last week, with five in the last 48 hours.
The party demands swift action from the administration to address systemic failures and hold leadership accountable for the loss of lives.
Reports of student suicides have been flooding in from across the country, with the NEET exam being rescheduled for June 21 amidst allegations of paper leak.
More than 2.27 million students had appeared for the test before it was scrapped, and the CBI continues its probe into the leak.
A 23-year-old NEET aspirant died by suicide in Uttarakhand's Dehradun, and a 17-year-old student preparing for the re-test died after allegedly falling from a residential building in Ahmedabad.
