The Cockroach Janta Party group held a protest at Jantar Mantar, New Delhi, to denounce irregularities in government examination processes. Affected students and families point out that the lack of transparency harms their educational and employment opportunities. The mobilization seeks to pressure authorities to ensure fair evaluations and restore trust in the system.
Anti-cheating technology: solution or mirage? 🤖
The implementation of digital surveillance systems in exams, such as facial recognition and browser locking, promises to reduce fraud.

Trust is built not just with code, but with verifiable processes.

Perhaps the group's name is no coincidence: if the educational system falls apart, they will be there to remind us that transparency is not optional. At least cockroaches don't cheat on exams.
