India's education minister Dharmendra Pradhan has resigned after huge youth protests led by the 'Cockroach' movement.
Demonstrations have been held in the capital, New Delhi, and cities across the country in recent weeks.
They were sparked by alleged examination paper leaks in some of India's most competitive entrance tests.
Protesters initially called for education reforms, but the movement has since transformed into broader public frustrations over unemployment, government accountability and economic opportunity.
It has become one of India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi's biggest challenges since he became prime minister in 2014.
Thousands of protesters have been returning to the streets even after police used tear gas and batons this week to disperse marchers trying to reach parliament.
The satirical Cockroach Janta Party took its name from a comment by the chief justice of India's Supreme Court, who compared unemployed young people to cockroaches.
