Protests outside coaching institutes in Delhi's Rajinder Nagar area continued for the fourth consecutive day on Wednesday after three UPSC aspirants lost their lives in a flooding incident in the basement of Rau's IAS coaching centre. The students are demanding that their issues are addressed swiftly, rather than receiving mere assurances.

Robin, a student involved in the protest, stated, 'We received promises during the fire incident at Sanskriti IAS, but the coaching centers reopened after a week. We want our demands met, not just assurances. We demand action.' Other protesters echoed these sentiments, refusing to back down until their demands are met.

Additional DCP Central Sachin Sharma assured students that action had been initiated by the authorities to fulfill their demands. 'Numerous false messages are circulating on social media. We are working to convey the correct facts and inform about the ongoing government actions. The LG also held a meeting with student representatives last evening,' Sharma said. Further, the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has issued notices to the Delhi Chief Secretary, Police Commissioner, and MCD Commissioner, demanding a detailed report within two weeks.
