India's Gen Z Protests Over Education System Failures

In India, young people known as Gen Z organized big protests because they were upset about problems in the education system.

One of the main issues was a leaked exam paper for medical school, which affected over two million students.

The protesters wanted the education minister to resign and for the government to fix the problems in the system.

They used social media and creative ways to get their message out and attract more people to their cause.

The government eventually agreed to some of their demands, including the minister's resignation and setting up a task force to reform exams.

The protests showed that young people in India are willing to stand up for what they believe in and can make a big impact.
