In the heart of the national capital, protests flared up on Thursday against the controversial cancellation of the NEET-UG examination due to an alleged paper leak.

The Association of Students for Alternative Politics (ASAP), the student wing of Aam Aadmi Party, spearheaded a demonstration outside the headquarters of the National Testing Agency (NTA), challenging the integrity of the medical entrance exam.

Amid calls for resignations and accountability, ASAP emphasized that paper leaks had become frequent since the BJP's rise to power. With numerous education groups joining the movement, the protest signals a broader dissatisfaction with the governance of India's education system.
