Pune, Jun 12 (V7N) – The viral social media-based organization ‘Kakroch Janata Party’ (CJP), which emerged as a protest movement following a controversial remark by India's Chief Justice, has now announced a large-scale nationwide campaign demanding accountability in the education sector.

A massive protest rally was held on Thursday (June 11) at Savitribai Phule Pune University in Maharashtra under the leadership of the organization's founder, Abhijit Deepak.

The youth-led movement officially launched a month-long protest campaign focusing on alleged examination irregularities, question paper leaks and reforms in the country's education system.

Prominent Indian education and environmental activist Sonam Wangchuk joined the rally in solidarity with the organizers. Speakers at the event strongly criticized the alleged question paper leaks surrounding the NEET-UG 2026 examination and raised concerns over irregularities in the evaluation process of examinations conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).

Protesters demanded accountability from authorities and called for the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, accusing the government of failing to protect the interests of millions of students.

During the rally, the organization unveiled a five-point "Education Manifesto" and announced plans to expand its campaign across the country. According to organizers, the movement will continue through major cities including Jaipur, Lucknow, Amritsar, Bengaluru and Hyderabad before culminating in a large sit-in demonstration at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi on June 20.

The movement traces its origins to a controversial comment reportedly made by Chief Justice Surya Kant during a Supreme Court hearing, in which a group of unemployed youths holding allegedly fraudulent certificates was compared to "cockroaches" or social parasites. The remark sparked widespread criticism among sections of India's youth.

In response, a parody social media page called "Kakroch Janata Party" was launched on Instagram in May. The page quickly gained significant popularity online, transforming from a digital protest platform into what organizers describe as a broader youth movement focused on education and employment-related concerns.

Organizers say the campaign will continue in the coming weeks as they seek to build nationwide support for their demands.
