Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday (May 24, 2026) said his party will not rest until Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigns and a foolproof system is put in place to prevent paper leaks like in NEET.
He shared a video of students protesting in Hyderabad, highlighting the NEET paper leak and demanding Mr. Pradhan's resignation. They also raised slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Mr. Pradhan.
"When millions of youth are on the streets, the future of 22 lakh children is at stake and the PM remains silent, then the government is not focused on responding but is busy evading," the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha said.
"Until Dharmendra Pradhan resigns and a foolproof system is established to prevent paper leaks like NEET, we will not stop," Mr. Gandhi said in a post in Hindi on X.

जब तक धर्मेंद्र प्रधान का इस्तीफा नहीं होता और NEET जैसे पेपर लीक रोकने के लिए foolproof सिस्टम नहीं बनता - हम रुकेंगे नहीं।pic.twitter.com/6KrhfUqDkL
