India’s ‘Cockroach’ movement camps out until education minister resigns | Politics News
Abhijeet Dipke, leader of the Cockroach Janta Party, a Gen Z political movement, and his supporters have camped in New Delhi demanding the resignation of the education minister, Dharmendra Pradhan. The protest began after widespread outrage over leaked exam papers and discrepancies in scores, causing significant stress among young people. Dipke's movement has gained momentum through social media, attracting hundreds of supporters across India who are protesting against what they perceive as unfair and incompetent government policies. The protests have escalated to the point where police have attempted to move the protesters from their designated site, but Dipke remains resolute in his demand for the minister's resignation.
