GermanyThe 'Cockroach' movement in India has led to the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan after weeks of protests against government corruption in higher education. The protests were triggered by a scandal involving leaked exam papers for one of the country's most important university entrance exams, forcing over two million candidates to retake the test. The movement began as a satirical reaction to a Supreme Court judge's derogatory remarks about unemployed youth, but it evolved into a broader call for educational reform, more jobs for young people, and societal change. The protests reached a peak when police used batons and tear gas against demonstrators marching toward Parliament, injuring dozens. Following Pradhan's resignation, the movement declared its protests complete, claiming their demands had been met.
