# CJP asks PM Modi to address youth, targets PSC exams, gig workers 2026-08-07T23:59:15+00:00 | India | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke has launched an online petition urging Prime Minister Narendra Modi to use his Independence Day address to speak directly to India's youth on education, unemployment, and the cost of living. The move comes after the CJP led a 36-day protest at Jantar Mantar over NEET irregularities, which ended with the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on July 25. In an interview with India Today, Dipke said the CJP will now target alleged irregularities in public services commission exams across states, especially in Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, and Uttar Pradesh. The outfit also plans to take up the plight of gig workers on food delivery platforms, calling their working conditions exploitative. A nationwide listening tour, 'Kya Bolti Public', will begin on September 1 to draft a citizen-driven Youth Reform Charter. ## Coverage - rediff.com - indiatoday.in Tags: Abhijeet Dipke, CJP, education reform, Independence Day, NEET protest, youth unemployment Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/cjp-founder-petitions-pm-modi-for-youth-address-on-i-day/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
