The Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) on Thursday lamented that the prime minister, through his fast-track court annoucement, was focusing on remedies after the damage was done, rather than addressing the root cause. "The announcement of fast-track courts is not a real solution. It is merely a distraction. The Prime Minister is making a cruel joke with the future of millions of students across this country." said Ashutosh Ranka, Spokesperson, Cockroach Janta Party. Quick answers to key questions • 5 QUESTIONS 1 Why does the Cockroach Janata Party oppose the fast-track courts announced by PM Modi? ⌵ The Cockroach Janata Party argues that fast-track courts are not a real solution to the problem of paper leaks, viewing the announcement as a distraction from addressing the underlying issues in the education system. 2 What are the demands of the Cockroach Janata Party regarding the Education Minister? ⌵ The Cockroach Janata Party is demanding the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, citing incompetence in managing the examination system and accountability for the ongoing paper leaks. 3 How effective will fast-track courts be in preventing future paper leaks in India?
⌵ Critics, including the Cockroach Janata Party, believe that fast-track courts won't prevent future paper leaks as they focus on punishment rather than addressing the systemic failures that allow leaks to occur. 4 What has been the public response to PM Modi's announcement of fast-track courts for paper leak cases? ⌵ The public response has been largely critical, with protests highlighting that people are demanding deeper accountability and reform in the education system rather than just punitive measures. 5 What specific actions does the Cockroach Janata Party want the government to take regarding paper leaks? ⌵ The Cockroach Janata Party calls for comprehensive reform in the education system, strict action against those responsible for systemic failures, and financial compensation for families affected by suicide linked to the paper leaks. CJP's response came soon after Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Thursday that the government has decided to set up fast track courts to ensure swift and stringent punishment for those involved in paper leaks. This was Prime Minister Narendra Modi's first big reaction on the protests held in national capital over paper leaks and growing demands for resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
"Paper leaks are not happening because India lacked fast-track courts. They are happening because Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan has been completely incompetent. He has failed to build a secure and foolproof examination system. Today, the youth of this country are demanding one thing above all else — accountability." Ranka said. The CJP has reiterated that it continue its protests until the Government accepts its demands seeking Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation, ₹1 crore compensation for families of children who died by suicide nad no prosecution of peaceful protesters during 20 July march to Parliament. "The Prime Minister's proposed solution is like putting a Band-Aid on a fractured bone. The problem runs much deeper. Our examination system is rotten from within. Unless the systemic failures are addressed, paper leaks will continue to occur." Ranka said. Widespread protests continued on Wednesday at Tolstoy Marg and Janpath in the national capital, as activists and students pressed on with their demonstration against the Centre over exam paper leaks and systemic issues in education. As the demonstration escalated, several protesters attempted to block moving traffic, with some allegedly throwing water bottles onto the road.
