Parliament deadlock continues over NEET paper leak
The Indian Parliament is in a deadlock.
The Opposition wants the Education Minister to resign because of a problem with a big exam called NEET.
The government says they will talk about the problem but won't make the minister resign.
Both sides are not agreeing, so the Parliament is not working properly.
They might find a way to talk next week, but for now, they are stuck.
Parliament deadlock continues for the fifth day over NEET paper leak controversy.
Opposition demands resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
Government agrees to debate but refuses to accept resignation precondition.
Both Houses adjourned until Monday with no resolution in sight.
Observers suggest behind-the-scenes talks may resolve the impasse next week.
