In a powerful demonstration at Gandhi Smriti on Thursday, Congress leaders, including Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and Rahul Gandhi, vocalized their concerns over what they call the destruction of democracy in India. The protest followed a contentious march disrupted by police resistance, drawing attention to the ongoing NEET-UG paper leak controversy.
Addressing the gathering, Priyanka Gandhi accused the central government of stifling democratic voices and resorting to the use of force against protesting students. She highlighted Mahatma Gandhi's philosophy of non-violence, contrasting it with the present ordeal faced by students demanding justice for repeated examination leaks.
Rahul Gandhi, flanked by MPs of the INDIA bloc, criticized the government for allegedly dismantling democratic principles. Citing a 'murder of democracy,' he urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to remove the Education Minister and apologize to students, promising unwavering support for the students' movement.
