Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Thursday accused the Opposition of 'acting like fugitives' for avoiding a debate with Union Home Minister Amit Shah, freepressjournal.in reports. He said the Opposition had earlier demanded the debate but now runs away, exposing their duplicity. Fadnavis linked the issue to the ongoing Jharkhand protests, where students have been demonstrating for over two weeks over alleged exam irregularities. He claimed the Opposition and the Jharkhand government have shown no concern for the youth.
The Jharkhand agitation has intensified, with protesters breaching barricades near the Assembly. The state government has proposed reforms, including an expert committee from IITs, IIMs, XLRI and ISM to examine the recruitment system.
This is a familiar political tit-for-tat. The BJP accuses the Opposition of fleeing debate, while the Opposition will claim the government is not serious about discussing paper leaks. The real victims are the Jharkhand students whose demands for fair exams are being ignored in this slugfest. The test will be whether Parliament actually holds a debate on exam reforms, not just a blame game.
