India’s ‘Cockroach’ Protests Force Parliament Suspension, Seek Education Minister’s Resignation

India’s youth-led “Cockroach” protests have pushed tensions into parliament, where lawmakers moved to suspend proceedings amid anger over the crackdown and demands for accountability. Supporters, camped at Jantar Mantar, say the protests will continue until Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigns, citing alleged exam paper leaks and systemic failures. Reporting describes tear gas and baton charges against demonstrators attempting to march toward Parliament. Opposition leaders have backed the protesters, while Amnesty International said the actions show how peaceful dissent is being suppressed.
