CJP protests: IIT Roorkee clarifies advisory amid social media row, says no new directive issued

IIT Roorkee clarified a social media advisory was not a new directive. This communication is an internal advisory issued annually to students and staff. The advisory was misinterpreted as a ban on supporting student protests online. The Cockroach Janta Party organized a protest demanding accountability for the NEET exam leak. Police arrested several protesters after they attempted to breach barricades.
