The Congress on Saturday stepped up its attack on the Centre over the NEET paper-leak issue, with Rahul Gandhi demanding that Prime Minister Narendra Modi should immediately sack Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan or take responsibility himself. The youth wing of the Congress staged a protest here demanding Pradhan's resignation over the issue and the alleged suicides of four NEET aspirants. Holding posters, banners and party flags, Indian Youth Congress activists took out a protest march from the Teen Murti Circle towards the education minister's residence, before they were stopped by police barricades.
Gandhi demanded that Modi should immediately sack Pradhan or take responsibility himself and alleged that the "BJP-RSS nexus" has destroyed India's education system.The leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha said the hard work of 22 lakh NEET aspirants has gone to waste. "The truth is that you (government) have damaged the core of India. This is a nexus of the RSS, the BJP and their people that have been installed in universities, vice-chancellors and professors to mint money,"
In a post on X along with the video, Gandhi said, "2.2 million NEET aspirants have been betrayed. Yet, Modiji has not uttered a single word. Remove Dharmendra Pradhanji immediately, or take responsibility yourself. Modiji, SACK Dharmendra Pradhanji NOW." the former Congress president alleged.
