We Have Done It CJP's Dipke After Dharmendra Pradhan's Resignation

New Delhi: Cockroach Janata Party on Saturday welcomed the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan but said that they will continue their agitation at Jantar Mantar in the national capital until all their demands are met.

"Kaha jaata tha iss sarkar main istife nahi hote. Jhukti hai duniya, jhukaane vaala chahiye," Abhijeet Dipke said."We have done it," he said noting that this is the first resignation from PM Narendra Modi's government.

Visuals from the protest site showed the protesters breaking out in cheers after the news of the resignation of the Union Minister.

Dipke said the other two demands include compensation for those who committed suicide and the resignation of the Delhi Police personnel who carried out the lathi charge."1 crore to the families of all students who died by suicide - PENDING 3. No action against any of the student protesters - PENDING," the CJP posted on its X platform, adding a check mark on Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation.

This comes after Pradhan stated that he was stepping down in the larger interest of students to ensure that the country's youth do not become "trapped in a web of confusion."In his resignation letter addressed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Pradhan highlighted his long-standing association with education and reaffirmed his commitment to the aspirations of India's youth."

For more than four decades, I have been associated with students, teachers, and the cause of education reform. I have always believed that a strong, inclusive, and forward-looking education system is the foundation of a strong nation," Pradhan said.

Recalling the NEET-UG controversy, Pradhan stated that the Centre acted promptly after irregularities surfaced in the May 3 examination.

"However, irregularities were found in the NEET-UG examination held on May 3, 2026. The Government of India immediately took cognisance of the matter, handed over the investigation to the CBI, cancelled the examination, and announced a date for the re-examination. Along with this, it was decided that from next year onwards, the examination would be conducted in Computer-Based Test (CBT) mode," he said.

The development comes a day after spokespersons from the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), which has been leading the protests, met union ministers JP Nadda and Jitendra Singh.
