- Action against the police officials who are accused of excessive use of force during the demonstrations.
Protest Continues Despite Heavy Security
Authorities have significantly tightened security across central Delhi. Multiple metro stations have witnessed restrictions, while police deployment around Jantar Mantar has been increased to manage the demonstration.
Political Reactions Continue to Grow
This development has now turned into a major political issue. The opposition has condemned the government’s handling of the NEET controversy and has organized candle marches and protests in several states.
Why Students Say the Issue Is Bigger Than One Exam
Many students argue that the current movement is not only about the NEET paper leak but also about restoring confidence in India’s competitive examination system. For lakhs of aspirants who spend years preparing for national-level entrance exams, fairness and transparency remain critical.
Will Dharmendra Pradhan Resign?
At present, there has been no official announcement indicating that Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan plans to resign. While the CJP and opposition parties continue to demand his resignation, the government has not signaled any change in its position.
