CJP representatives Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka met with Union Minister J.P. Nadda in Delhi to deliver a letter containing three specific demands [1, 2].
The meeting represents a direct attempt by protest leaders to negotiate with the central government during the 'Chalo Sansad' demonstrations. The outcome of these demands could influence the duration and intensity of the current sit-in protests in the capital.
The CJP delegation presented a letter to the minister that focuses on three primary issues [2]. First, the group is seeking the release of Sonam Wangchuk. Second, they are calling for the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan. Finally, the representatives demanded Rs 1 crore [2] in compensation for the families of NEET aspirants who died by suicide.
Reports on the exact location of the encounter vary. One account said the meeting took place at the residence of J.P. Nadda [1], while another said the meeting occurred during the 'Chalo Sansad' protest in Delhi [2].
The interaction between the CJP leaders and the minister lasted 10 minutes [1]. The government has urged protesters to end the sit-in as part of the broader response to the demonstrations [2].
Saurav Das and Ashutosh Ranka acted as the primary intermediaries for the CJP during this exchange. The group continues to press for accountability regarding education standards, and regional autonomy through their list of demands [2].

This meeting signals a transition from street protest to formal diplomatic engagement between the CJP and the Union government. By linking the release of a high-profile activist like Sonam Wangchuk with financial compensation for students, the CJP is attempting to unify diverse grievances into a single political leverage point against the current administration.
