Unfazed by Tear Gas, the Cockroach Party... Education Minister Resigns, Shocking PM Modi

Back in May, 2.2 million people across India took the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) for medical school admissions.

Following a test paper leak scandal, the Gen Z group "Cockroach Janta Party (CJP)" launched a fierce revolt.

Their demands were clear.

As pressure mounted for the resignation of the education minister, reform of the examination system, and compensation for the bereaved families of students who died by suicide, the education minister ultimately stepped down.

This marks the first time a high-ranking cabinet minister has resigned due to public pressure under the Modi administration.

Prime Minister Modi, facing his biggest political crisis since securing his third term, also promised a complete overhaul of the medical school entrance examination system.

Have the young people's anger finally subsided?
