The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has officially announced the withdrawal of its weeks-long nationwide agitation "in good faith" after the central government agreed to withdraw all police cases registered against student protesters.

The breakthrough was announced during a joint press conference in New Delhi attended by Union Ministers Jitendra Singh and JP Nadda alongside CJP spokespersons Ashutosh Ranka and Saurav Das.

The development follows the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan earlier in the day, which fulfilled the central demand of the student movement triggered by the NEET-UG paper leak controversy.

Under the terms of the agreement, the central government has committed to rescinding all police complaints and pending charges filed against student demonstrators across the country. In response, CJP leadership confirmed the immediate suspension of their demonstrations at Jantar Mantar and other protest sites.

While intense political speculation had swirled that the mounting youth movement could escalate into a broader crisis capable of bringing down the Modi regime, the withdrawal of the agitation effectively stabilizes the political landscape, ensuring Prime Minister Narendra Modi remains firmly in power.

"The government has agreed to withdraw all cases against student protesters. In good faith and to ensure normalcy returns, CJP is calling off its ongoing agitation."

Joint Statement by CJP and Union Ministers

Meanwhile, discussions remain ongoing regarding the remaining demand for ₹1 crore INR in compensation for the families of students who died by suicide following the examination irregularities. Further administrative notifications detailing the official withdrawal of police cases are expected to be issued shortly.
