The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) rejected Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s announcement of fast-track courts for paper leak cases, insisting that Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan must resign. Responding to the Prime Minister’s assurance of a stronger crackdown on examination leaks, CJP maintained that accountability begins with the minister heading the education system. The party reiterated that its demand for Pradhan’s resignation remains non-negotiable despite the government's promise of swift investigations and stricter punishment for those responsible. The development comes amid nationwide protests over the alleged NEET-UG 2026 paper leak, with the Opposition also pressing for Pradhan’s resignation while the Centre has agreed to a parliamentary debate but ruled out accepting the demand.
