Government Ready for Parliamentary Discussion on NEET Paper Leak Amid Opposition Demands

Analysed 22 Jul 2026·28 sources analysed·Delhi, India·Politics
Government Ready for Parliamentary Discussion on NEET Paper Leak Amid Opposition DemandsPreviousNext

The Indian government, led by Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju, has expressed readiness to hold a detailed discussion in Parliament on the NEET paper leak issue, urging all parties to agree on the debate's rules, timing, and duration. Opposition leaders, including Akhilesh Yadav and Mallikarjun Kharge, have demanded the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, citing police action against student protesters and examination irregularities. While the government emphasizes parliamentary debate over street protests, the Opposition insists on accountability before discussions proceed, leading to repeated disruptions and adjournments in both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha.
