Thousands of protesters linked to the Cockroach Janta Party youth group marched to India's Parliament on July 20, the opening day of its monsoon session, to demand the education minister's resignation over recent controversies surrounding school exams and to press authorities on other youth grievances, AP reported on July 20. Police cracked down on protesters in response, and later the same day, India's health minister reportedly asked the group for time so authorities could discuss its demands.
