NEW DELHI – The Budget Session saw fiery exchanges on the very first day on Monday, as Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav slammed the Government over paper leaks in NEET examinations and also questioned the entire Indian examination system.
Akhilesh Yadav claimed that lakhs of students are anxious and worried over their future because of paper leaks in competitive exams like NEET but the government was not paying heed to their concerns.
SP supremo, in a searing jibe, said, “There can’t be justice for the students till this government is in power.”
Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan replied by informing the House that the results are in the public domain for everyone to see.
Rahul Gandhi, Leader of Opposition (LoP) in Lok Sabha, described the whole examination system as ‘fraud and rubbish’, eliciting strong protest from the Minister.
“Millions of students are concerned and convinced that the Indian Examination system is a fraud. They believe that if you have money, you can buy the Indian education system,” the LoP said.
Rahul also asked Modi government’s plan to address the systemic issue and also what was it doing to fix the issue. -IANS
