The protest has been organised by the CJP, a youth-led online movement demanding accountability for alleged irregularities in examinations and recruitment tests, including NEET, CBSE, CUET, and SSC examinations

Scores of demonstrators gathered at the venue, chanting slogans and demanding the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan

Abhijeet Dipke, founder of the online movement Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), joined the planned demonstration at Jantar Mantar in Delhi

Dipke, who arrived in Delhi early in the day, had urged supporters to maintain discipline and ensure that the protest remains peaceful

He criticised the government for focusing on the organisation's social media activity rather than addressing their demands

He also mentioned that activist Sonam Wangchuk would be joining the protest shortly and thanked him for his support

Sonam Wangchuk, who has also expressed support for the protest, stated that he would undertake a six-week fast if Dipke is arrested

Security was heightened across the national capital in anticipation of the protest. More than 1,000 police personnel have been allocated for deployment throughout New Delhi and other strategic locations as a precaution
