Jantar Mantar saw Arvind Kejriwal join Sonam Wangchuk's protest on July 16, backing his campaign over alleged exam paper leaks and calling for Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation.
Repeated leaks were the focus of Kejriwal's appeal, with the AAP leader saying students and youth pay the price every year and urging the Centre to hear their demands for a fairer examination system.
Sonam Wangchuk's indefinite hunger strike framed the protest's urgency, and Kejriwal said the activist had put his life at stake for students rather than for any personal cause.
April 4, 2011, was Kejriwal's reference point as he linked the gathering to his Anna Hazare anti-corruption protest at the same site, warning that governments that ignore public anger can lose power.
