NEET Crisis Deepens: Suicides, Protests, and Calls for Reform

There's a big problem with India's NEET exam, which is a very important test for students who want to study medicine.

Recently, a student died by suicide after thinking she didn't do well on the test.

This isn't the only problem - there have been accusations of cheating and other issues with the exam.

A famous educator named Sonam Wangchuk is protesting by not eating until the government does something about these problems.

He's been doing this for 19 days and is getting very sick.

Many people, including politicians and teachers, are saying the government needs to fix these problems to help students.
