Notably, Tens of thousands of young protesters, led by the Cockroach Janta Party, are assembled at Jantar Mantar, a designated protest site in New Delhi, calling on Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan to step down. Protests have also sprung up in cities like Mumbai and Bengaluru. “This movement will not stop until we get the resignation of Pradhan,” the CJP put up a post on X. “We will fight together, we will win together.” Pradhan has struck a defiant tone in response to the protests, accusing the Congress party of using “students as political tools to manufacture disruption,” according to a post on X on Tuesday. He shared the government was committed to addressing students' concerns about the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test, one of the world’s largest medical admission exams, which triggered the recent protests.
As per the latest buzz, Earlier this week, the protests turned violent as public anger culminated in violent demonstrations in the capital when police used batons and tear gas to disperse crowds. On Tuesday, police forcibly removed senior opposition leaders from a sit-in outside Prime Minister Modi’s home.
