Abhijeet Dipke addressed supporters at Jantar Mantar in Delhi, demanding accountability over examination irregularities and alleging attempts to suppress online criticism through account restrictions and content removals.
A large protest gathering was held at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi on Saturday, where Cockroach Janata Party founder Abhijeet Dipke addressed supporters and renewed calls for action over alleged irregularities in entrance and recruitment examinations.
Hundreds of party workers and young protesters assembled at the demonstration site amid tight security arrangements. The protest remained peaceful as participants raised slogans and voiced concerns about transparency and accountability in the examination system.
Speaking to the crowd, Dipke described the movement as a long and ongoing struggle. He claimed that for the past month, activists had been using social media platforms to demand the removal of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, holding him responsible for controversies linked to competitive examinations.
Dipke also alleged that online campaigns connected to the movement had faced interference. According to him, social media accounts associated with activists were being targeted, while certain posts were allegedly being removed. Addressing supporters, he said that while online content could be taken down, the voices behind the movement could not be silenced.
The protest witnessed strong participation from students and youth groups, many of whom expressed frustration over reported issues in recruitment and entrance examinations. Demonstrators called for greater transparency in the conduct of public examinations and sought accountability from authorities.
The Cockroach Janata Party has been consistently demanding action over alleged examination irregularities. Party leaders argue that students and job aspirants deserve a fair and reliable system, and they have urged the government to address concerns raised by candidates across the country.
Security personnel remained deployed around the protest venue throughout the event to ensure order. Authorities monitored the gathering closely as speeches and demonstrations continued at Jantar Mantar, one of the capital’s most prominent locations for public protests.
