UP Congress Chief Seeks Presidential Intervention in Delhi Protests

UP Congress Chief Seeks Presidential Intervention in Delhi Protests

The UP Congress chief, Ajay Rai, has written to President Draupadi Murmu asking for her help because of the police using force during a student protest in New Delhi.

He wants the Union Education Minister to be removed and for there to be an independent investigation into the police actions.

He says that the government should talk to the protesters instead of using force.

The Congress Party believes that the use of force is not the right way to handle protests and that dialogue is important.

The government, on the other hand, thinks that the use of force is necessary to maintain order.

The protest is about issues with the NEET exam and the government's handling of it.
