New Delhi: AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal on Friday called for massive public protests against recurring exam paper leaks and alleged irregularities in India’s education system, just a day before the proposed protest by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar.

In a sharp attack on the system, the AAP leader claimed that paper leaks have become a “multi-billion racket” involving powerful people and warned that the crisis would continue unless students and citizens force the government to act.

“Enough Is Enough”: Kejriwal

Taking to social media platform X, Kejriwal urged youth to come out on the streets and raise their voice against repeated controversies surrounding examinations like NEET and CBSE board results.

“Paper leaks are a business worth billions and trillions. This racket involves very big-shot people. Until all of you take to the streets and force the government to act, this racket won't stop,” Kejriwal wrote. He further appealed to citizens to unite “for the future of children and the country” and demand accountability from the government.

Protest Call Gains Momentum

Kejriwal’s remarks come ahead of the June 6 protest announced by Cockroach Janta Party founder Abhijeet Dipke, who plans to lead a demonstration at Jantar Mantar demanding the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.

The protest has already received support from climate activist Sonam Wangchuk, who said he would join the agitation if no action is taken by June 5 regarding alleged examination irregularities.

Exam Controversies Spark Nationwide Anger

The country has witnessed growing outrage over repeated paper leak incidents and result-related controversies in recent months. The issue intensified after NEET UG 2026 was cancelled shortly after the examination was conducted.

Fresh criticism also erupted over alleged glitches in the CBSE Class 12 evaluation and re-evaluation process, including incorrect marking, blurred answer-sheet scans and technical problems on the portal.

Opposition parties have targeted the Narendra Modi-led government over the issue, demanding strict action and accountability from the Education Ministry.

Questions Over June 6 Protest

Meanwhile, uncertainty continues around the proposed CJP protest in Delhi. Questions have been raised regarding permissions, crowd management and possible police action if the gathering proceeds without official approval.
