AAP Criticizes Rahul Gandhi's Protest, Alleging Undermining of Student Movement
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's protest outside Prime Minister Narendra Modi's residence, accusing him of undermining the ongoing Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) student movement against NEET paper leaks. AAP leaders alleged a tacit alliance between Congress and BJP, citing swift government engagement with Gandhi's protest compared to the police response to CJP's month-long agitation. Congress rejected these claims, asserting their protest amplified student demands. The dispute highlights tensions among opposition parties amid calls for Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation.
