The Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) has expressed support for the ongoing agitation led by the youth-driven Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) against the alleged irregularities and paper leak in the NEET examination. The party's backing comes as the movement gains traction among students and young people across the country.
The protest movement, founded by Abhijeet Dipke, emerged in response to concerns over examination paper leaks, recruitment irregularities, and rising youth frustration over education and employment issues. What began as a satirical online campaign has rapidly evolved into a nationwide youth movement.
Leaders of Shiv Sena (UBT) stated that students affected by the NEET controversy deserve justice and transparency. The party said it supports peaceful democratic protests demanding accountability in the education system. According to reports, the movement is seeking action against those responsible for examination irregularities and has demanded the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
Dipke has maintained that the agitation will remain peaceful and constitutional, distancing it from violent protests seen elsewhere. He has indicated that demonstrations will continue until concrete action is taken on the issues raised by students.
The Cockroach Janta Party has attracted significant attention on social media and has become a symbol of youth dissatisfaction over exam-related controversies, unemployment, and governance issues. Recent protests in New Delhi drew hundreds of participants and further amplified the movement's demands.
