The student protest organized by the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar area has been in the headlines across the whole world, and the cricketing fraternity also joined the protest through social media handles after many former cricketers and their wives shared their views on the ongoing protest. Now, former India batter Sanjay Manjrekar has shared his views on it.
Sanjay Manjrekar has taken a stand in support of the students and others who are present in the protest. He has taken a dig at the ruling government for the issues, which mainly include the leaks of the NEET paper, which caused several students to commit suicide, and thus all the protesters are seeking the resignation of the education minister.
While writing on X (formerly Twitter), former India batter Sanjay Manjrekar has used strong words against the government and has not shied away from saying that the students’ protest shows something is terribly wrong that has happened inside the past few months and days. He blames the media as well for brainwashing that is occurring in the country.
"I stand in solidarity with the youth of India. Do not suppress them, give them wings. They will take India to new heights," Sanjay Manjrekar wrote the first time.

— Sanjay Manjrekar (@sanjaymanjrekar) July 23, 2026"This isn’t just about NEET paper leaks [mainly the reason behind the ongoing protests]. It’s a revolt against feeling generally suppressed in a democracy & the mainstream media’s brainwashing. As a father of two, I know first-hand: suppressing & brainwashing today’s youth will never work," Sanjay Manjrekar wrote in the second post.

One lesson that he instilled early on was, ‘Failure is okay, cheating is not.’ Never take shortcuts - Sachin Tendulkar
Not only Shubman Gill, but former India great Sachin Tendulkar also wrote a beautiful message on his X (formerly Twitter) handle. Tendulkar wrote on X, "My father was a professor. He was a mentor and guide to many young students. One lesson that he instilled early on was, ‘Failure is okay, cheating is not.’ Never take shortcuts."
"Today, when students feel disappointed that their hard work hasn’t been rewarded, it is understandable. Collectively, we should all work together towards ensuring they don’t feel this way again. Young India is full of dreams and energy. They are the fuel to our success."
