The voices standing for the ongoing student protests at Delhi's Jantar Mantar led by Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) is growing louder by the day. The latest celebrity to stand in solidarity with the movement is Jyotika who shared an Instagram post calling for the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and asserted that she stands with the students and "future of India."

Sharing a strongly worded statement, Jyotika wrote, "Step down Dharmendra Pradhan. Resign." She further said, "I stand with the students and the future of our nation. I stand with accountability. I stand for a democratic India. I stand for a reformed education."

The actor also extended her support to environmentalist Sonam Wangchuk and praised student activists Abhijeet Dipke and Saurav Das. Commending the younger generation for speaking up, she wrote, "As mothers, we want to raise our children to be like you. Proud of you, Gen Z, for being unfiltered. You have proved that together, 'WE' are India."

Jyotika concluded her message by thanking the students for their courage, writing, "Thank you for breaking the pressure. Thank you for making us fearless. Jai Hind."

She joins the increasing number of Tamil film celebrities raising their voice for the issue. Recently, director Pa Ranjith's Neelam Cultural Centre organised a protest at Rajarathinam Stadium in Egmore on Thursday.
