Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the opposition in Lok Sabha, slammed the Narendra Modi government at the centre in his first reaction to the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protest march to the parliament on Monday, saying the students raising valid concerns were “dragged and beaten”.
Event Context
“Prime Minister Modi is the most youth-hostile Prime Minister in India’s history—so youth-hostile that he can’t even demand the resignation of a failed Education Minister, Dharmendra Pradhan. 152 paper leaks. 7.5 crore students victimized. And not a single guilty person punished. Who got the punishment? The hardworking youth,” Rahul Gandhi said on X.
“And when these children raised legitimate questions about education—they were met with batons and detention in response. The criminals who leaked the papers roam free—and the students raising valid issues are dragged around, beaten. This government isn’t just failing the youth—it’s pouncing on them,” he added.
