Rajya Sabha Adjourned Amid NEET Protests
The Rajya Sabha, which is like a big meeting of important people who make laws, had to stop working for the day because some people were very upset.
They were protesting because they think the police were mean to students who were protesting about a big test called NEET.
The students were upset because someone cheated in the test by leaking the questions.
The people in charge of the meeting asked everyone to be quiet and follow the rules, but the protesters didn't stop.
So, the meeting had to be postponed for the day.

Deputy Chairman Harivansh urged members to maintain decorum and proceed with legislative business.
