# CJP claims questions on youth protests, NEET disallowed in Lok Sabha 2026-08-16T14:27:00+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets Cockroach Janta Party chief spokesperson Saurav Das has claimed that three sets of questions concerning the CJP-led youth protests were disallowed in the Lok Sabha during the recently concluded Monsoon Session. The Times of India and Free Press Journal report that DMK MP Matheswaran V.S. had submitted the questions to the Union home and education ministries under notice reference numbers 101799 and 101801. The questions sought answers on six issues, including refund of NEET-UG 2026 application fees, growing public distrust in the government, denial of drinking water and sanitation facilities to CJP protesters in Delhi, the government's engagement with protesting students, student welfare, paper leaks and education reforms, and the treatment of citizens exercising their right to peaceful protest. Das said the questions were rejected under Rule 41(2) of Lok Sabha rules, citing clauses (i), (iv), (v), (xviii) and (xxii). He called the reasons 'very bizarre justifications for perfectly legitimate questions'. Das questioned how the government could be held accountable if such questions cannot be asked in Parliament, and asked why Home Minister Amit Shah did not appear before Parliament to answer questions on police action against protesters. Matheswaran confirmed to PTI that the questions were disallowed and said he received the information through the Lok Sabha members' portal. The CJP-led protests began in June over the NEET-UG examination and paper leaks, and were called off after the government accepted demands including the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. ## Coverage - timesofindia.indiatimes.com - freepressjournal.in This story was synthesised by AI from the 2 sources linked above.
