Rahul Gandhi, a prominent leader of the Indian National Congress, has sharply criticized the central government following the tragic death of Akanksha Chaturvedi, a NEET aspirant from Mauganj district in Madhya Pradesh. Reports indicate that Akanksha allegedly died by suicide in Nagpur after experiencing depression linked to irregularities in the NEET-UG exam. Her father, a farmer, had taken a loan of ₹3 lakh (approximately $3,600 USD) against his Kisan Credit Card and worked as a cook to ensure Akanksha could attend coaching classes. Gandhi expressed his sorrow over her death, stating that it was not merely a suicide but a reflection of a corrupt and dysfunctional system under Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He criticized the Education Minister, Dharmendra Pradhan, for his inaction amidst ongoing educational crises, calling for necessary reforms to prevent future tragedies like Akanksha's. Gandhi's comments highlight the urgent need for accountability and change within the Indian education system, particularly concerning examination integrity and support for students.
