NEW DELHI: Congress leaders, including party President Mallikarjun Kharge, Lok Sabha LoP Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, KC Venugopal and Pawan Khera today held a protest at Lok Kalyan Marg, demanding the resignations of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
The protest came hours after both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha were adjourned for the day with the opposition seeking discussion on the NEET-UG paper leak and other issues of education sector amid protest in the national capital.
Mallikarjun Kharge raised the issue of “lathi-charge” on protestors in Rajya Sabha on Monday and Tuesday.
The Congress MPs also staged a foot march towards the Prime Minister’s residence.
In an X post, Rahul Gandhi said they have marched to PM Modi’s house “to demand answers from him for the brutalities against young students yesterday”.
“The Government doesn’t want to take any accountability, or does it want to have a debate on it in Parliament. PM and HM must resign for destroying the future of India’s youth,” he said.
