Rahul Gandhi Criticizes Government for Targeting Student Protesters

On Friday, prominent Congress leader Rahul Gandhi voiced strong criticism against the NDA government regarding the ongoing FIRs filed against student protesters involved in nationwide demonstrations linked to the NEET paper leak controversy. His remarks came as a response to the government's actions, which he perceives as an attempt to intimidate and silence the younger generation. Gandhi's statements highlight a growing concern among political leaders about the treatment of students and their rights to protest in a democratic society.

In a post shared on social media platform X, Gandhi emphasized that the government’s tactics to suppress dissent among the youth are unacceptable. He pointedly remarked that the ruling BJP represents a bygone era in India, cautioning them to reconsider their approach towards the nation's future leaders. His comments reflect a broader sentiment among opposition parties that the current administration is increasingly authoritarian, particularly in its dealings with young activists and students who are vocal about their grievances.
