Protests in New Delhi have entered their third day as pressure grows on Narendra Modi to dismiss his education minister.

The minister at the centre of the dispute says the government remains committed to reform. But supporters of the so-called Cockroach party accuse him of incompetence and are demanding that he leave office.
