Opposition Criticises New Exam Law in Rajya Sabha
In 2024, a big meeting in India's Parliament had a lot of shouting.
Mallikarjun Kharge, the opposition leader, said the new exam rules will not stop people from cheating.
He also blamed the Prime Minister and Home Minister for not listening to students who are upset about cheating.
Another opposition member asked a minister to say sorry for what he said about the protests.
Kharge said the new law only changes numbers but does not fix the real problem of cheating.
The debate shows that many people are worried about cheating in exams and want the government to do something better.
Mallikarjun Kharge criticized the new exam law in Rajya Sabha, saying it will not curb paper leaks.
Kharge accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah of silence over student protests and alleged atrocities.
Opposition MPs demanded that Union Minister Giriraj Singh apologise for remarks about student protests.
Kharge highlighted that the Public Examination Amendment Bill 2026 only changes figures but does not address the root problem of paper leaks.
The debate reflects growing student unrest over exam security and government accountability.
