The CJP is mostly protesting over issues they have with India’s education system. <\/p>\n
The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) is India’s main entrance exam for admission to medical colleges across the country. <\/p>\n
Nearly 2.28 million candidates sat the exam on 3 May, having studied for months – in some cases years – for the notoriously difficult paper. However, days later, it was cancelled after allegations that the questions had been leaked.<\/p>\n
It was a big blow to aspirants, who had to resit the exam under tight security weeks later. Anger over this was one of the reasons the CJP began its protest.<\/p>\n
It and families have also alleged that some 20 students died by suicide due to distress after the exam was cancelled.<\/p>\n
The NEET exam was also hit by a similar scandal in 2024. <\/p>\n
The CJP is calling for the education system to be overhauled, with greater accountability over alleged exam paper leaks and the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.<\/p>\n
Following the treatment of Wangchuk on Monday, CJP leader Abhijeet Dipke also called on Modi to resign.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
