New Delhi: In a significant national development, two representatives of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) met Union Minister JP Nadda at his residence, with their ‘letter of demands’ on Monday. In the recent development, CJP spokespersons Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka put forth their three demands before the Union Minister while the latter appealed to them to end the sit-in stir and help bring normalcy in the high-security zone, close to the Parliamentary complex.
What are the demands of CJP?
In its three direct and explicit demands, the CJP has sought – the release of Sonam Wangchuk, with no prohibition on his movements, resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and Rs 1 crore compensation for all NEET aspirants who committed suicide, following the NEET 2026 paper leaks.
