CJP Demands BCI Chief Manan Mishra's Resignation Amid NALSAR Student Protest Row
The Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) has called for Bar Council of India (BCI) chairman Manan Kumar Mishra's resignation following the BCI's temporary halt of NALSAR University's 2026 batch enrolment. This action responded to student protests against Chief Justice of India Surya Kant's convocation invitation. The CJP criticized Mishra's leadership and the Council's response, while the CJI condemned the BCI's interference, affirming students' right to peaceful protest. Mishra later stated the BCI and students share the goal of protecting youth interests.
