Indian government seeks time on youth protesters' minister resignation demand

Indian government officials have requested time until Saturday afternoon to respond to demands from the youth-led Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) for the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over exam paper leaks. Talks between government ministers and CJP representatives occurred after activist Sonam Wangchuk ended a 26-day hunger strike, with protesters warning of expanded demonstrations if the demand is not met.
