Mumbai influencer seeks probe into minors at CJP NEET protest
A man named Faizan Ansari from Mumbai went to the police in Indore to complain about something he saw.
He said that young boys and girls — kids who are not old enough to be adults — were at a big protest in New Delhi.
A protest is when people gather together to show they are upset about something.
These kids were at a protest about an important medical exam called NEET, because people worried that the exam question paper was leaked before the test.
Mr. Ansari wants the police to check whether the people who organized the protest asked the kids to come or helped them take part.
He also asked the police to look at photos, videos, and social media posts from the protest.
If the police find that a law was broken, he wants a formal police case, called an FIR, to be opened against the protest leaders.
The police say they have received the complaint and are looking into it.
Faizan Ansari, a Mumbai resident claiming to be a social media influencer, filed a complaint with the Indore police over the alleged presence of minors at a CJP protest in New Delhi.
The complaint seeks an investigation into CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke, chief spokesperson Saurav Das, and others regarding minors' participation in the Jantar Mantar protest.
Ansari asked police to preserve and investigate photos, videos, media interviews, public statements, CCTV footage, and social media content from the protest.
The complaint states an FIR should be registered if the probe reveals offenses under the POCSO Act, BNS, the IT Act, or the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act.
The 36-day CJP protest over the NEET paper leak ended on July 25 after Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned and the government accepted the agitators' demands.
