India's educated youth face unemployment crisis
in5points
India's 'Cockroach Janta Party' (CJP), a youth-led protest movement, uses satire to highlight unemployment among educated youth.
Economist Arun Kumar says unemployment has created a gap between expectations and reality, with youth taking competitive exams 4-6 times.
Kumar links privatisation of education to unethical practices like paper leaks, driven by coaching institutes seeking success rates.
India produces millions of graduates yearly but fails to create enough quality jobs, fueling the movement.
The CJP evolved from memes mocking joblessness and inflation into street protests.
