CJP Issues Warning
CJP leaders said they would be "forced to protest again" if the FIRs registered against participants in the recent demonstrations are not withdrawn.
The organisation maintained that those who participated in the protests were exercising their democratic right to peaceful assembly.
These remarks reflect the organisers' position.
Key Demands
According to CJP, the government should:
Withdraw FIRs registered against protesters.
Refrain from initiating legal action against peaceful demonstrators.
Address students' concerns over the alleged examination irregularities.
Engage in meaningful dialogue with protest representatives.
Government's Position

Government leaders have also stated that the alleged NEET examination irregularities are being investigated and that action will be taken against those responsible for any malpractice.
These statements represent the government's position.
Background
The protests were organised in connection with the alleged NEET paper leak and related demands for accountability and reforms in the examination system.

Looking Ahead
