While addressing a press conference in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar after a two-day meeting of the party’s core team, Dipke said that the protests led by the CJP at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi over the NEET paper leak and alleged irregularities in recruitment examinations had drawn not only students but also unemployed youth from across the country, PTI reported.
“Unemployment is a major problem. We will make it a nationwide issue. We will work on education reforms. Education has remained unaffordable since schooling. Education is used for making profits. But we want to change it," Dipke had said. Calling Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation as Union education minister the “biggest achievement" of the students’ agitation, Dipke said the movement had highlighted the growing concerns among young people over education and employment. CJP Announces Working Committee The CJP also announced its Working Committee, with Dipke appointed as national convener. Chief spokesperson Saurav Das and spokesperson Ashutosh Ranka were named co-conveners. The organisation said it plans to strengthen its presence across the country by setting up state, Lok Sabha and city-level units over the next six months. It also announced a membership drive through its website, targeting students, young professionals and workers. The CJP reiterated that it has no immediate plans to enter electoral politics and will instead concentrate on grassroots mobilisation.
