The protests, which began after allegations of a paper leak and irregularities in the 2026 NEET examination, have gained nationwide momentum in recent weeks. On July 20, thousands of students and protesters participated in the Sansad Chalo march in Delhi, demanding accountability and reforms in the examination system. During the demonstration, several protesters were lathi-charged by the Delhi Police, while tear gas was used to disperse the crowd. The incident sparked widespread outrage, with several public figures and celebrities extending their support to the students.
