Delhi HC to hear PIL on CJP protest funding
The Delhi High Court is going to hear a case about a protest called by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP).
The protest is happening at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi and is about some problems with exams.
Someone named Satish Kumar Aggarwal has asked the court to look into the protest because he thinks it might be getting money from outside the country and is causing trouble for people in Delhi.
He says the protest is not just about exams but has become political.
The CJP says they are just students who want the Education Minister to resign because of exam problems.
The court will decide if they need to investigate further.
The Delhi High Court will hear a PIL on Friday regarding the CJP's protest at Jantar Mantar.
The PIL alleges foreign funding, political manipulation, and public disruption during the protest.
Petitioner Satish Kumar Aggarwal seeks a comprehensive investigation into the protest's impact on national security and public order.
The CJP has been protesting since June 20, demanding the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over alleged examination irregularities.
The court has asked the Centre and Delhi Police to respond to allegations of excessive force during a related march.
