CJP Demands Resignation Of Education Minister Pradhan Over NEET Issue
CJP founder demands Education Minister Pradhan’s resignation over NEET exam controversy.
The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke has reiterated his demand for the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over the alleged NEET paper leak case and reported irregularities in several competitive examinations. He has also issued a warning that a large-scale protest will be held on June 20 if the demand is not met.
Dipke stated that the demand for resignation stems from concerns over the conduct of national-level examinations and alleged administrative failures. He said that if Minister Pradhan does not step down, and if Prime Minister Narendra Modi does not remove him from office, the CJP will intensify its agitation. The issue, he claimed, relates to broader questions about fairness and accountability in the education system.
During his visit to Pune, Dipke said the party had sought permission to hold a protest at Pune University against the current government’s handling of examinations. He also urged parents not to discourage their children from speaking out against what he described as “wrong policies,” asserting that student voices must be heard in public discourse.

He further announced that the CJP plans to expand its protests beyond Pune, with demonstrations expected in multiple metropolitan cities, including Lucknow and Bengaluru. According to him, the movement will culminate in a major protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi on June 20 if their demands remain unmet.
Dipke also spoke about the personal and social pressures faced by those participating in protests, claiming that students and parents are often fearful of speaking out. He said his own family expressed concern about his activism, adding that his mother had urged him to consider staying abroad due to potential backlash, though he chose to remain engaged in public action.
He concluded by emphasizing the importance of dissent and collective action, stating that silence would have consequences for students and future generations. According to him, continued unity among protesters is necessary to ensure that their concerns are addressed and that accountability is maintained in the education system.
