00:00We will be later in government.
00:46That is, of course, the government's first response coming in after the Supreme Court cancels all FIs against CGP protesters.
00:53Senior BGP leader and senior union minister J.P. Nader, who you would remember was one of the key faces
00:58of the government's mediation with the CGP when the protest was happening last month,
01:03coming out and giving a short video statement saying that they are committed to the assurance given to the CGP
01:09on the basis of which the protest was called off last month at Jantar Mantar
01:14and saying that they will ensure that there is no, that no frivolous cases are filed against people who were
01:20part of the CGP protests.
01:21From the 20th of July to the 26th of July, J.P. Nader has also welcomed the CGP's decision to
01:28call off its planned protest on the 5th of September
01:30saying that they are committed to its assurances given to the youth of the country and they welcome the movement
01:36that there is no more efforts at disruptionist politics by the CGP.
01:40So that was, of course, J.P. Nader speaking to the media, giving a short video statement right after we
01:45got to know from the Supreme Court
01:47that all cases that have been filed against protesters across states have been squashed
01:53and it is the CGP also which has decided to call off its planned protest on the 5th of September.
02:02So that was, of course, J.P. Nader addressing the media and saying that they are committed to not, they
02:08are committed to fulfilling all the assurance.
02:10Remember the key assurance on the basis of which the CGP had called off its protest when it was, its
02:16three-week protest at Jantar Mantar last month,
02:18of course, was the resignation of then Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, but also one of the key conditions was the
02:24cases that were filed against CGP protesters
02:26for the week of protests that happened at Jantar Mantar, not just in Delhi but also across the country from
02:32the 20th of July to the 26th of July.
02:34The CGP insisted that all the punitive action that were filed against the youth of the country for taking part
02:40in CGP protests will be scrapped.
02:43Now, over the last few weeks, we had disgruntled voices coming in from the CGP claiming that the government was
02:49not really acting on those assurances or on those promises
02:52and as a result, they announced their decision to come up with a fresh protest march to Jantar Mantar on
02:58the 5th of September.
02:59Today, fast-paced developments happened which resolved this issue first at 2.30 p.m. this afternoon.
03:05The CGP came up with an announcement saying that it is going to call off the protest because it has
03:10received assurances from the government
03:13and at the same time, the Supreme Court also came out saying that it has given an order to quash
03:20all the cases against the CGP protests.
03:23And now, we heard in from Union Minister J.P. Nanda. Let's listen in once again to that reaction.
04:10It was the case.
04:22Thank you very much.
04:42Thank you very much.
