Live Events
CJP protest continues at Jantar Mantar
The CJP has continued its protest at Jantar Mantar. The organisation had earlier announced the 'Chalo Sansad' march, a call that was also supported by activist Sonam Wangchuk, who was admitted to hospital on Saturday morning.
Why is the CJP protesting?
The demonstrations began in June 2026 at Jantar Mantar over the NEET-UG 2026 paper leak.
The protestors are demanding:
Action over the alleged examination irregularities
The resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan
Greater transparency in the examination system
The movement gained wider national attention after Sonam Wangchuk joined the protest site in late June and began an indefinite hunger strike.
Delhi Metro commuters advised to plan ahead
Passengers travelling through central Delhi on Friday, July 24, are advised to check the latest updates issued by the DMRC before starting their journey, as Metro services around the affected stations may remain disrupted until further instructions.
