CJP-Centre talks likely on Friday as delegation to meet ministers: Sources

New Delhi: A delegation of the CJP will meet government ministers on Friday, sources said, amid ongoing discussions to break the deadlock over the NEET paper leak controversy.

The meeting is scheduled for 12:30 pm, though the venue has not been disclosed yet.

The proposed meeting comes after a series of backchannel negotiations aimed at addressing the concerns raised by the protesting group and finding a way forward.

The CJP has been holding a sit-in protest at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar over alleged irregularities in the examination system, including the NEET paper leak issue. The protesters have demanded accountability from the authorities, including the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and reforms in the education system.

The meeting is expected to focus on the demands raised by the protesters and possible steps to address concerns related to examination transparency, student grievances and reforms in the current system.

The development comes amid heightened attention around the CJP-led agitation, which has seen participation from students, activists and supporters at Jantar Mantar. The protest has also triggered wider discussions on exam security, accountability and the impact of paper leaks on students’ futures.

Authorities have continued monitoring the situation in Delhi while talks between representatives and government officials are expected to determine the next course of action.
