"We will continue to protest till Dharmendra Pradhan is terminated," said Sudesh Singh, as thousands of protesters chanted slogans and the size of the crowd grew slowly.
The protests by the CJP began as an online satire and involved only a few hundred young people when they were first launched.
Violence was reported again on Wednesday night when more than 10,000 protesters gathered at the Jantar Mantar protest site in central Delhi.
Mobile internet services in the area were disrupted again on Friday morning, with Reuters journalists reporting patchy or no connectivity.
But the protesters have rejected the proposal, saying the examination system should be fixed to prevent leaks in the first place.
