@ibtimesuk: Thousands of protesters marched toward India's Parliament in New Delhi before police used tear gas, water cannons and batons to disperse the crowd, leading to violent clashes and numerous injuries. The demonstrations were organized by the youth-led Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), which is demanding accountability over alleged exam paper leaks, education reforms and the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. Organizers claimed more than 10,000 people joined the march. The protests have become one of the biggest challenges to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government, with opposition leaders condemning the police response and rights groups calling for restraint. Despite the crackdown, movement leaders vowed to continue campaigning for reforms, although they said they would suspend further marches on Parliament. #India #NewDelhi #Protests #WorldNews
