CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke writes to PM Modi as Jantar Mantar protest enters Day 15 NEW DELHI: Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke on Saturday wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, urging him to break his silence over education activist Sonam Wangchuk’s indefinite hunger strike and demanding the resignation of union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan over alleged examination irregularities.The letter comes as the CJP’s protest at Jantar Mantar entered its 15th day, while Wangchuk completed seven days of his indefinite fast. The party has been demanding accountability over alleged exam paper leaks and irregularities, particularly in national-level examinations.In his letter, Dipke questioned why the Centre had not responded despite Wangchuk’s worsening health.”We have been sitting in protest at Jantar Mantar for the past 15 days, and today marks the 7th day of educationist Sonam Wangchuk’s indefinite hunger strike. How long will your government choose to ignore our voices, sir?” he wrote.Dipke said a hunger strike in a democratic society is meant to create moral pressure on those in power.”The underlying principle is simple: when someone like Sonam Wangchuk, a man who has dedicated his entire life, mind, and soul to this country and to the cause of education, refuses to consume food, it is supposed to elicit a conscious response, whether moral or political, from the government of the day. Yet, you have not spoken a single word,” he said.Explaining the reasons behind the protest, Dipke said it was driven by repeated exam paper leaks, alleged government inaction and the deaths of students.”We are sitting here because your government has repeatedly failed to stop exam paper leaks that have shattered the faith and future of crores of young Indians. We are sitting here because your Education Minister refuses to accept moral responsibility and resign from a post he has occupied for close to five years,” the letter said.He also alleged that the government had failed to provide justice to families of students who died by suicide.”This protest is not just a political exercise but also a desperate cry to save the lives of our youth. Before we sat for the protest on June 20, 11 students had committed suicide due to the compounding trauma of the paper leaks and exam cancellations. Today, as you continue to look away, that devastating count has crossed 29 students. Every single day your government chooses silence, the body count of India’s future rises,” Dipke wrote.The CJP founder further criticised remarks allegedly made by senior leaders against the protesters.”Instead of an empathetic dialogue, your minister Dharmendra Pradhan has labeled us terrorists, and your party president has called us names, threatening that the youth of India will be ‘taught a lesson’ for daring to raise our voices against this broken, corrupt system and these preventable deaths,” he said.Questioning the Prime Minister’s silence, Dipke wrote, “Your resounding silence makes us ask—do you truly believe we are just ‘cockroaches’? If you, as the Prime Minister, refuse to respond to the Cockroach Janta Party’s peaceful hunger strike, your silence stands as a tacit admission that you view the youth of this country as nothing more than pests to be ignored.”The letter also accused the Delhi Police of using force against peaceful protesters and disrespecting books kept at the protest site.”Under the direct orders of ACP Ajay Sharma and Inspector Neeraj Sahu, police personnel threw books onto the muddy roads—specifically targeting literature on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, Dr B.R. Ambedkar, and Shaheed Bhagat Singh,” Dipke alleged.He demanded the immediate suspension of the two police officers.”We ask you, Prime Minister ji: if students protesting for a better, fairer education system cannot even keep a small library at their protest site for others to read, what kind of society are you building? Why is there this deep-seated hatred for education and the icons who shaped our Constitution and freedom?” he wrote.Concluding the letter, Dipke urged PM Modi to act before Wangchuk’s health deteriorates further.”We demand that you break your silence, listen to the voice of India’s future before it is completely lost, and hold your minister Dharmendra Pradhan accountable,” he said.The protest began on June 20 over alleged irregularities in several examinations, including NEET. According to the CJP, Wangchuk has lost around five kilograms since beginning his fast, and his health is deteriorating.On Friday, Wangchuk welcomed progress in talks between the Centre and representatives from Ladakh on the region’s demands, but urged the government to also address accountability in the education sector.The protest has drawn support from several opposition leaders, student groups and civil society activists, including CPI(M) general secretary MA Baby, CPI leader D Raja, CPI(ML) Liberation general secretary Dipankar Bhattacharya, social activist Yogendra Yadav, advocate Prashant Bhushan, RTI activist Nikhil Dey and Trinamool Congress MPs Mahua Moitra and Sagarika Ghose.Get the latest India news and live updates.

Justice Yashwant Varma NEW DELHI: Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla on Saturday said the probe committee’s report on Justice Yashwant Varma will be tabled in the Lok Sabha during the upcoming Monsoon Session as it was sought by MPs cutting across party lines .”The report will be tabled during the Monsoon Session. The future course of action will be decided later,” Birla told reporters on the sidelines of an event in Kolkata.His remarks came on a day when Union minister Kiren Rijiju announced that the Monsoon Session of Parliament will begin on July 20 and conclude on August 13.Facing impeachment proceedings over the recovery of a large quantity of burnt currency notes from his official residence, Justice Verma resigned on April 9. However, President Droupadi Murmu is yet to accept his resignation.The recovery was made in March 2025 while Verma was serving as a judge of the Delhi high court.He initially refused to resign and was subsequently repatriated to the Allahabad high court.On August 12 last year, Birla constituted the probe committee after receiving a proposal from 146 Lok Sabha MPs on July 21 seeking Verma’s removal.After referring to relevant laws and judgements of the Supreme Court, the Delhi high court chief justice found the charges against Justice Varma were of a serious nature and followed it up with the “in-house procedure”.Earlier, then Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna had initiated an in-house probe into the allegations and set up a three-member committee to conduct an inquiry against Justice Verma.The committee comprising Punjab and Haryana High Court Chief Justice Sheel Nagu, Himachal Pradesh High Court Chief Justice GS Sandhawalia and Karnataka High Court Justice Anu Sivaraman submitted its report on May 4, 2025.After receiving the report, then-CJI asked Justice Varma to resign or face impeachment proceedings.However, as Justice Verma had initially declined to resign, both the in-house probe committee’s report and his response were forwarded to the President and the prime minister for initiating the process for his removal.The Supreme Court had also dismissed Justice Varma’s plea against the-then CJI’s recommendation for his removal.(With PTI inputs)Get the latest India news and live updates.
