Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal recently called on India's Gen Z to draw inspiration from protests in Nepal and Bangladesh, urging them to demand justice for the recent NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) question paper leak. Following this, AAP leader Atishi clarified that Kejriwal's remarks were intended to promote peaceful protests, not violent uprisings. She emphasized that the AAP has always supported non-violent demonstrations and expressed concern over the emotional distress faced by NEET candidates, citing a friend's daughter who suffered a nervous breakdown due to the exam's cancellation. The NEET exam, which was scheduled for May 3, was cancelled after leaked 'guess papers' surfaced. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is currently investigating the incident, having arrested five individuals in connection with the case. Atishi criticized the stringent regulations imposed on students while exam organizers face no such scrutiny, calling for accountability in the education system.
