Tharoor in Mumbai says Congress's paper leak protest failed to resonate like CJP's

hindustantimes.com

Congress leader Shashi Tharoor admitted Friday that his party’s student outreach on exam paper leaks failed to resonate as strongly as the Cockroach Janta Party’s protests, urging introspection. Tharoor noted CJP's issues were earlier raised in Congress's "Chhatron ki Goonj" campaign, led by Rahul Gandhi in Kota, Dehradun and Prayagraj. CJP's June 20 protest over NEET-UG 2026 leak demanded minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation and drew Gen Z support. NSUI protested in Delhi on May 12 after NEET was cancelled. CJP's July 20 Parliament march saw police action, sparking opposition allegations; activist Sonam Wangchuk had earlier backed the protest with a hunger strike.
