#SchoolThikKaro."The campaign was announced earlier this week by Dipke as “Season 2 of Jantar Mantar,” following the withdrawal of the CJP's 37-day protest at Jantar Mantar on July 25 after former Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned and assurances were given on other key demands, news agency ANI reported.
