Rahul Gandhi Critiques System at Indore Student Event; MP CM Responds
At the 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' event in Indore, Rahul Gandhi criticized the current system, alleging it suppresses students who question authority and favors unquestioning supporters, whom he called 'andhbhakts'. He highlighted issues like vacant teaching posts, school closures, recruitment delays, and declining education budgets. Gandhi named Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, NSA Ajit Doval, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat, and industrialists Gautam Adani and Mukesh Ambani as controlling the system. Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav responded by calling Gandhi's claims unprepared and lacking factual basis. Students raised concerns about education infrastructure, reservation disputes, and employment challenges.
