Manika Rana, former president of the BJYM Tehri Garhwal unit, said she was relieved of her post months ago, not expelled for joining the Cockroach Janta Party protest.
The protest at Jantar Mantar sought the resignation of education minister Dharmendra Pradhan over alleged NEET paper leak.
Rana stated she remains a party member and was removed from her role in April or May 2026.
Education minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned on July 25, 2026, after a 35-day protest led by CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke.
The CJP warned of further protests if government commitments are not honoured.
