Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke said the organisation's peaceful protest at Delhi's Jantar Mantar will continue even after activist Sonam Wangchuk ended his 26-day indefinite hunger strike.

Dipke thanked Wangchuk for what he described as his courage and sacrifice, saying the fast had drawn nationwide attention to concerns over alleged irregularities in the NEET examination and the government's handling of the issue.However, he made it clear that the end of the hunger strike would not mark the end of the agitation.According to Dipke, the CJP will continue its protest until Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigns.Wangchuk ended his fast shortly after midnight at Medanta Hospital in Gurugram in the presence of Union ministers JP Nadda and Jitendra Singh.

In a statement shared on X, Wangchuk said he decided to break his fast after prolonged negotiations with the government and because of concerns that the situation could lead to violence.He also appealed to supporters across the country to remain peaceful and not allow any form of violence.

The protest movement intensified after the 'Sansad Chalo' march on July 20, when clashes reportedly broke out between protesters and Delhi Police near Parliament after demonstrators allegedly attempted to breach barricades.

Since then, authorities have maintained heightened security in central Delhi, including restrictions such as temporary suspension of mobile internet services and the early closure of some commercial establishments in Connaught Place.

The administration remains on alert amid concerns that further demonstrations could escalate, while CJP leaders continue to insist that their movement will remain peaceful.
