Gandhi Criticizes Modi Over NEET Paper Leak

Rahul Gandhi criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the alleged police action against students protesting the NEET paper leak.

Gandhi accused the Modi government of destroying the education system and protecting those responsible.

He demanded the removal of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, an apology to the students, and action against those who assaulted protesting students.

In response, PM Modi reiterated his government's commitment to protecting students' interests and announced the setting up of fast-track courts for paper leak cases.

The exchange comes amid ongoing political confrontation over the handling of examination-related irregularities and the police action against student protesters.

Additionally, activist Sonam Wangchuk ended his 26-day hunger strike, drawing national attention and appeals from across the political spectrum.
