In India, two big political groups are arguing about helping students.

A leader named Rahul Gandhi, who is part of the Congress party, used to visit a place with many coaching centers in Hyderabad to talk to students.

Now, a leader from the BJP party named N Ramchander Rao is telling him to come back.

Rao says the state government promised to pay back money for extra classes and to give lots of students jobs, but it has not.

He says about 12,000 crore rupees are still owed, and some schools are keeping student papers because of it.

Rao also thinks Rahul Gandhi should answer questions in parliament about student protests instead of avoiding it.

He says another leader, Amit Shah, is ready to talk about it.

Both sides say they care about students, but they blame each other.

Mostly, this story is about two political parties arguing over promises made to students.
