The Story in Brief
Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav on Wednesday accused the Centre of being undemocratic for fixing a time limit on its parliamentary response to student protests over the NEET paper leak. He said such a constraint would produce only a hollow statement. Days earlier, he blamed the Modi government for the violent job protests in Jharkhand, where police used water cannons and lathi charges after demonstrators breached barricades near the assembly. Several protesters and four policemen were injured. Yadav also questioned the government over alleged theft of donations at the Ram Temple in Ayodhya and condemned the attack on former West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee's convoy.
The Indian Opinion
The opposition is quick to blame the Centre for every protest, while the BJP cries disruption whenever it is cornered. Both sides ignore the real issue: lakhs of young Indians face a broken job market and a leak-ridden exam system. The Ram temple donation allegations and the Mamata Banerjee convoy attack are being dragged in to score points. The real test will be whether the government gives a full, time-unrestricted response in Parliament and whether the NEET leak investigation actually leads to arrests and systemic reforms.
