'Govt has played delay games': CJP announces march from India Gate on Sept 5

The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has scheduled a youth march for September 5 in Delhi, alleging that the government has not fulfilled its promises following the termination of student protests at Jantar Mantar on July 25. According to a statement from the CJP National Working Committee posted on X, the march will commence at India Gate and culminate at the New Delhi Police Headquarters.

The demonstration will be spearheaded by the families of deceased NEET victims and individuals who have faced alleged police brutality, with participation expected from various student and youth organizations.

CJP asserts that the government has failed to honor commitments regarding the withdrawal of First Information Reports (FIRs) against students and protesters. The organization expresses strong disapproval of the Union Government's failure to adhere to assurances made on July 25, particularly concerning the withdrawal of FIRs. The CJP National Working Committee states that the government's delay and avoidance of clear commitments have prompted the resumption of peaceful mobilization.

The decision to organize the march was made after the CJP reviewed the commitments allegedly made by the government on July 25, which led to the nationwide youth protests being withdrawn. The committee has expressed serious doubts about the government's intentions to honor its commitments, alleging that the government has been delaying action and evading clear commitments.

The CJP also refers to proceedings before the Supreme Court, noting that on August 18, the court requested a list of FIRs across the country to facilitate collective handling. The organization accuses the government of not providing a clear commitment on this matter.

CJP declares, "We announce a peaceful protest march from India Gate to the new Delhi Police Headquarters on 5 September, led by the families of the deceased NEET victims and victims of police brutality, and joined by students and young citizens from across the country." The group explains that it returned to the streets due to the government's apparent determination to betray the youth and the families who have already lost their children.

It emphasizes that a government cannot betray the trust of an entire generation after withdrawing its promises. The CJP urges students, youth organizations, and young citizens to gather at India Gate on September 5, stating that the families of the deceased and victims of police brutality will lead the protest.
