The Delhi High Court has refused to grant an urgent hearing to a petition seeking crowd-control measures ahead of the Cockroach Janta Party's (CJP) proposed protest on Saturday.
The plea, filed by NGO Save India Foundation, was mentioned before a vacation bench of Justices Saurabh Banerjee and Amit Sharma, but the bench declined to grant an urgent hearing.
The petition sought directions to Delhi Police and other authorities to make arrangements for crowd management and maintain public order in view of the protest call issued by the youth-led movement.
The CJP protest is linked to alleged irregularities in major examinations, including NEET, CBSE and CUET, and is demanding accountability in the education system and action over examination-related controversies.
Founder Abhijeet Dipke plans to return to India on June 6 and seek permission for a peaceful protest at Jantar Mantar, demanding the resignation of Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
