'If Fighting for Our Rights Makes Us Rebels, Then We Are Rebels'

Addressing the gathering, Sher Singh alleged that examination papers in Uttarakhand had become easily accessible. "In Uttarakhand, exam papers are available like items sold at a grocery shop. We have seen the Patwari paper leak ourselves."

Quoting freedom fighter Bhagat Singh, he said: "Bhagat Singh had said that life is lived on one's own strength; only funeral processions are carried on the strength of others. Do not be afraid. This is Bhagat Singh's country."

He also called for a peaceful movement, saying: "Revolutions do not come through bombs and pistols. We must remain non-violent. Revolution comes through ideas, and ideas never die."

Announcing his resignation from the police force, Singh declared: "If fighting for our rights makes us rebels, then yes, we are rebels. From today, I resign from the Uttarakhand Police."

He then handed his resignation letter to Abhijeet Dipke on stage as protesters applauded.

CJP-Nadda Meeting

CJP held a second round of talks with Union ministers JP Nadda and Jitendra Singh over the NEET paper leak protests, submitting three key demands and a five-point examination reform charter.

The nearly two-hour meeting ended without a final decision, with the Centre seeking time until Saturday to respond to the demand for Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation. According to CJP spokesperson Ashutosh Ranka, the government gave in-principle approval to two of the three demands while deferring its response on Pradhan's exit.

The alleged resignation comes amid continuing protests led by the Cockroach Janta Party, which has been demanding the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, compensation for affected students, and sweeping reforms to the examination system.
