Indian government seeks time on youth protesters' minister resignation demand

The Indian government is buying time to respond to demands from the youth-led "cockroach" movement for the resignation of the education minister due to exam paper leaks. This follows discussions between the government and activists after prominent leader Sonam Wangchuk ended a 26-day hunger strike. With tens of thousands of protesters gathering in Delhi, this issue highlights growing public discontent over governance and corruption, underscoring the urgency for accountability in the education sector. The government's delay in addressing these demands could further fuel the movement’s momentum.
