Poonam Pandey Joins NEET Protest at Jantar Mantar
Actress Poonam Pandey joined a protest in New Delhi to support students affected by problems in a big exam called NEET.
She said she was there only to help the students and not for politics or religion.
Many people are upset because some students have reportedly died due to the exam issues.
Another activist, Sonam Wangchuk, has been on a hunger strike for over 20 days to support the cause.
The police took him to the hospital, which some people think was not right.
The protest is organized by a group called the Cockroach Janta Party.
