Modi Punctured as Awakened India Students Force Swift Retreat

Modi Punctured as Awakened India Students Force Swift Retreat For much of Narendra Modi’s 12 years ruling India, he’s looked nearly unbeatable at the polls. This weekend he swiftly yielded to a group that didn’t exist a few months ago, energizing opponents who have struggled to gain traction against one of the nation’s most powerful leaders. Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned on Saturday to take accountability for a series of exam scandals in the face of a student protest movement that mobilized thousands of young people in New Delhi and started to spread around India. The Cockroach Janta Party, which formed two months ago as a social media joke, declared victory and called off its demonstrations while vowing more action “to solve all the problems in this country.”
