Students Demand Apology as Rahul Gandhi Reiterates Demand for Minister's Resignation

Rahul Gandhi used his X post to echo the clear demands of student protesters: the immediate removal of Education Minister Dharamendra Prasad and a formal apology to the affected students. Gandhi stressed that the government must act against those who have threatened the safety and future of young learners.

He added that the ministry’s failure to prevent paper leaks had “inflicted the greatest harm on our youth,” and that protecting the education system should be the top priority for any administration.

The statement came after Prime Minister Modi’s promise of fast‑track courts, a move that Gandhi described as a positive step but insufficient without holding the minister accountable.
