Protests Over NEET Leak Highlight Education Challenges and Judicial Response
Protests at Jantar Mantar demand Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation over the NEET exam paper leak, with calls for accountability amid a government-led retest. Critics highlight broader issues in India's education system, including declining budget allocations and coordination challenges between central and state governments. The Chief Justice of India's refusal to review alleged police brutality against protesters has raised concerns about judicial accountability. The unrest reflects deeper frustrations with the examination system and youth distrust in democratic processes.
