NC protests in Delhi for J&K statehood, amid NEET row
The National Conference (NC) organized a protest in Delhi demanding the restoration of statehood for Jammu and Kashmir. The protest was supported by CPM leader Tarigami and drew participation from Hyderabad. Meanwhile, the youth-led Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protested following the resignation of India's education minister, with some reports linking their funding to foreign sources and a demand for NIA investigation. Opposition parties criticized the NC's protest, with the BJP highlighting flood relief efforts and the PDP suggesting learning from activist Sonam Wangchuk.
