People are focusing too much on “Will Cockroach Janta Party contest elections???” and completely missing what just happened historically speaking.

For the first time in YEARS, India’s youth did not just complain online for 2 days and move on.

We united. Not for a single issue for 3-4 days. But for issues that we all face. We united because we are tired of being mocked, of being ignored, of being cheated, of being treated like shit.

Ive heard adults saying: “Indians forget everything.” “India’s youth only makes memes.” “Nothing changes.” “You people will move on in a week.”

But Ill be honest here, this time something changed.

Because every single young person in this country is carrying anger about SOMETHING.

1. NEET paper leaks 2024,2026
2. Government job paper leaks- Young people working hard and still feeling hopeless about the future.
3. Board exam osm unfairness- Students studying hours a day just to get betrayed
4. Other job/exam leaks
5. Unemployment or Degrees losing value because of oversaturation and unemployment
6. The falling rupee (96 inr=1usd, 112=1 euro)
7. Fuel prices constantly rising- modi travelling giving melody to meloni while asking us to conserve fuel
8. Women safety (Bus rape case and so many more as well as rapists being honoured) I dont know why women aren't angrier
9. Corruption being normalized
10. Politicians acting like rulers instead of public servants
11. Politicians/people in power (ahem chief justice) saying the most out of pocket stuff and thinking they can get away with it
12. Casteism
13. Election vote theft
14. Everything being sold to adani and ambani; rich get richer, poor get poorer
15. People of certain religion being harmed/killed
16. Air pollution, water pollution, noise pollution
17. People dying due to potholes in roads
18. Brain drain and talented youth leaving India
19. India's world press freedom index
20. The whole jolly llb thing where people driving expensive cars can run anyone over? I didnt forget the pune porsche case.
21. Declining mental health
22. Rising cost of living
23. Manipur

And then people wonder why the “cockroach” thing exploded. Justice Surya Kant's words were a catalyst. Becos people saw themselves in it. What are we to this system/in this system?

Cockroaches.

People who survive no matter how much pressure is put on them. People who are insulted, stepped on, ignored, and still keep going. We don't deserve that. And we are not supposed to accept that as normal in hopes of leaving the country. Your country is not supposed to make you feel like escaping it.

And not because people literally agree with the word, but because it reflected a feeling of being at the bottom of a system that keeps running regardless of what happens to you.

The funniest part is that people think this is “just a satire movement.” Which is what it started out as. But that is not all it will be. This is probably the first truly internet-native youth political awakening India has seen. Im truly proud of it. Gen Z speaks differently.
We use memes and sarcasm. We joke about everything because honestly if we don’t we'll prolly lose it. But underneath the jokes there is real frustration.

And, the demands are not even extreme. People are literally asking be accountable, answer questions, stop hiding scams, stop acting above ordinary citizens, stop treating criticism like anti-national behavior, stop making students pay for systemic failures.

That’s it.

Whether this becomes an actual political party or not honestly does not even matter to me right now. What matters is this: India’s youth finally realized it has collective power. And once you realize you are not alone in your anger, something changes permanently. People always said Indians forget and move on. This time, we didn’t. Its not about left vs right. Nobody is on our side. Its us vs the system.

And, even if it does take a political turn, remember, the people bearing the cost of these issues. Take neet for example, 22 lakh kids. They will vote one day.

Waiting for the day Dharmendra Pradhan resigns.

TLDR: Elections arent the goal of cockroach janta party right now. They are a newfound symbol of unity amongst the youth against collective issues.

What exactly is the point of becoming a damn doctor in this shitty country anymore?

Seriously. What is the point? You spend your entire childhood being told that hard work matters. Study harder. Sacrifice more. Sleep less. Stay disciplined. Ignore birthdays. Ignore friendships. Ignore your health. Ignore your happiness. Lock yourself in a room for two years while everyone else gets to live like normal human beings. And for what? So one random corrupt animal sitting somewhere can leak a paper and destroy the future of millions overnight?

Amazing system. Truly world class.

This country loves glorifying suffering when it comes to students. Everyone worships “hardworking aspirants” until the moment they actually need protection. Then suddenly nobody cares. Suddenly it is all investigations, committees, statements, “strict action will be taken,” and the same recycled garbage we hear every single year after another disaster happens. The education system in this country is not broken anymore. It is rotten. Completely rotten.

Children are treated like fucking numbers. Coaching institutes treat them like products. Politicians treat them like opportunities. Examination authorities treat them like experiments. And then adults wonder why students are angry, depressed, exhausted, cynical, and emotionally dead before they even turn twenty. Being a NEET aspirant feels less like preparing for an exam. And now the paper gets leaked. Again.

Of course it does. Because why would an organization responsible for the future of millions ever be expected to function competently? That would be too much to ask apparently. We can launch rockets into space but cannot secure a fucking question paper. Incredible. We are supposed to believe this is a serious country when one of the most important exams in India gets handled with the professionalism of a badly managed school event. People say “don’t blame the system.” Why not? Who exactly should students blame? Themselves? Their parents? For studying honestly? For believing merit mattered? For thinking fairness existed?

You know what this system teaches students? It teaches them that honesty is stupidity. It teaches them corruption wins. It teaches them rich people, connected people, and cheating scum will always find shortcuts while normal students bleed themselves dry trying to compete fairly. And the funniest part is how everyone pretends medicine is still some noble respected profession untouched by corruption. No. Stop romanticizing it. If papers are being leaked, then somewhere down the line an incompetent idiot gets a seat they did not deserve. That means one day some patient somewhere could end up under the knife of someone who cheated their way into medicine. Think about how horrifying that is. Imagine trusting your life to a person who entered the system through fraud while deserving students were thrown aside because the exam got compromised.

To every person buying papers, selling papers, facilitating leaks, protecting rackets, taking bribes, or quietly profiting from this mess, I genuinely hope karma destroys your peace. I hope one day you understand exactly what it means when incompetence ruins lives. Because this is not “just an exam.” You are playing with the future healthcare system of an entire country. You are gambling with human lives.

Life is very cheap in India. Students definitely are. We do not matter. We never did. Every year proves that louder. At this point, why even conduct exams? Just auction the seats publicly. AIIMS Delhi starting at 1 crore. Government colleges premium package available. Merit optional. Honesty optional. Future optional. At least then students would stop hoping. Stop hoping the system is fair. Stop hoping hard work means something. Stop hoping honesty will be rewarded. Stop getting tricked into believing merit still exists before reality crushes them years later. At least then the hypocrisy would finally end.

And the people responsible for this disaster should remember something. Students may be powerless today, but memory lasts. Anger lasts. Betrayal lasts. You are raising an entire generation that no longer trusts its institutions, its examination system, or the people running the country. That damage is going to outlive every press conference, every apology, and every excuse. And the government acts surprised every single time.

Enough.

Bring back CBSE conducting these exams. Bring back AIPMT. At least people trusted the process more than this circus. At least students did not have to wake up every year terrified that another scam would erase years of effort and sacrifice overnight. Look at Gaokao in China. They take that exam so seriously because they understand one simple thing: if you destroy trust in education, you destroy the future of the country itself. There are entire systems built around protecting fairness because they know students are not disposable. Meanwhile here, students are expected to tolerate infinite incompetence with folded hands.

And where are the politicians now? Rahul? Prime minister Modi? Where are all the speeches about youth empowerment? Where are the dramatic promises about building the future? Where is the outrage from the people constantly talking about “New India”? Is the Prime Minister sleeping? Does nobody in power realize what this does to students mentally? Every year there are ceremonies at AIIMS Delhi. Degrees handed out. Medals given. By the same politicians.

Dreams? What dreams are left when the entrance exam itself cannot be trusted? How can anyone stand on a stage celebrating merit when the system allowing students into medicine gets contaminated by corruption again and again? Students are tired. JEE students pity us. Hell, even we pity ourselves. Not tired in the casual sense. Tired deep in their bones. Tired of pressure. Tired of uncertainty. Tired of fake motivational speeches from people who never have to suffer the consequences of these failures. Tired of being treated like machines whose only purpose is to produce ranks and percentages. Tired of working day and night for someone to buy our hardwork. I guess money can buy everything right nta?

Do adults even understand what preparing for NEET does to teenagers? Kids destroy their mental health preparing for this exam. Some isolate themselves for years. Some stop talking to friends. Some develop anxiety so severe they cannot sleep properly. Some genuinely start believing their worth as a human being depends entirely on one score.

And after all that, the system spits in their face. Then people wonder why students lose hope.

And what makes this even more disgusting is the arrogance of the people in power. There is always this attitude that students should quietly accept everything. That young people should stay obedient, grateful, silent, patient. No. Absolutely not.

You do not get to destroy trust, destroy fairness, destroy mental peace, destroy years of effort, and then expect respect automatically.

The youth of this country are not blind.

We see the corruption.

We see the incompetence.

We see the hypocrisy.

You call students the future of the nation while treating them like disposable trash the moment accountability is required.

How dare you.

How dare you gamble with millions of futures and then hide behind press conferences and investigations after the damage is already done. How dare you force children into a system where honesty feels like a disadvantage. How dare you expect patriotism and optimism from students while repeatedly proving that corruption always finds a way to win. I hate this side of India, call me anti national. But this is not what India was.

And remember something very carefully. Students grow up. Teenagers become adults. And adults vote. Who the fuck do i even vote, everyone sucks here. And these mfs manipulate votes too. So I ask, what is the point of me existing in this country? If my effort doesnt count, if my vote doesnt count. I should just leave then.

You can manipulate narratives on television. You can issue statements. You can delay investigations. You can pretend everything is under control. But people remember humiliation. People remember betrayal. People remember who failed them when they were vulnerable.

Today’s exhausted NEET aspirants are tomorrow’s voters, doctors, professionals, taxpayers, and citizens. And every time this system treats them like they are worthless, resentment grows deeper. You are not just leaking papers. You are destroying faith. And once an entire generation loses faith in its institutions, rebuilding it becomes almost impossible.

But what do you care huh? We are students, we cant do anything, we dont have anything yet. And you wont let us either.

As my conclusion, i would like to say Abishek Singh, Preadeep kumar joshi, every single fucker involved in leaking papers, buying them, every single rat bastard facilitating this, I hope one day, you need a doctor and you get the doctor who cheated.

India, you have failed your youth.
