PM Modi's Gen Z outreach sparks opposition backlash

Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a video message to young people in India about a big problem with a school exam called NEET.

He used his phone's selfie camera, which made it look very casual.

Some people liked that he was trying to talk to young people in a modern way.

But other people, especially those who oppose the government, said the video was not serious enough.

They think he should have talked about the problem in a more official way, like in Parliament.

They also said he didn't properly address the demands of students, who want the Education Minister to step down and for the government to take responsibility for some police actions.

The video was made late at night, which some people thought was strange and not very respectful to the students' concerns.
