Youth Uprising Forces India's Hand on Exam Reforms The resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan is a rare victory for India's youth, who have been pushing for reforms in the country's exam system for months.
The "cockroach" movement, led by activists such as Abhijeet Dipke and Sonam Wangchuk, has tapped into widespread frustration with the existing system, which has been marred by corruption and inefficiency.
The protests began after allegations of leaks in the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), one of the most high stakes exams in India.
