Hundreds of people are continuing to gather at the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protest site in Delhi, India's capital, two days after a police crackdown. The youth-led movement is advocating for education reforms and the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
Supporters are traveling from various states to join the demonstration, indicating sustained momentum for the cause. The protest received a significant boost on Tuesday when leaders from India's main opposition Congress party held a protest outside the prime minister's residence, signaling broader political engagement with the movement's demands.
Despite heavy rains overnight, thousands of CJP supporters remained at the protest site, underscoring their commitment to the cause. The BBC reported that the "momentum is still there" for the protest.
