Hyderabad: The Cockroach Janta Party’s (CJP) nationwide stir campaign is set to reach Hyderabad today, with a protest scheduled to be held at Dharna Chowk. According to the schedule shared by the group, the event is slated to begin at 10 am.
The Hyderabad protest is part of a nationwide campaign being held across multiple cities between June 11 and June 20, including Pune, Lucknow, Amritsar, Bangalore, Jaipur and Delhi.
Citizen activists Vijay Mallangi, Ruchith Asha Kamal and Sonde Ansar addressed the media at Gun Park on Friday, June 12, and announced the programme.
The protests are part of the party’s take on the NEET (UG) question paper leak under the Ministry of Education, with participants demanding the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
Speaking about the campaign in Pune, CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke said, “We are starting our nationwide protest from today at SPPU. The protest will be peaceful and within the framework of the Constitution. Today, we will be releasing our education manifesto.”
“The manifesto focuses on preventing question paper leaks, ensuring timely declaration of examination results, improving transparency in recruitment and entrance examinations, strengthening accountability of examination authorities, and addressing issues faced by students due to delays and irregularities in the conduct of examinations,” he said.
