A large gathering of students and supporters gathered at the Jantar Mantar protest site in the national capital on Saturday, demanding accountability from the government over alleged examination irregularities and repeated paper leaks.
Among the protesters were a judicial aspirant from Bihar, a protestor from Mumbai, and a friend protesting on behalf of a NEET aspirant.
An undergraduate student from Delhi participating in the protest said she was opposing the NEET paper leak as it had severely affected the morale of her friend, a NEET aspirant.
Several protestors blamed the National Testing Agency, the organisation which conducts the exams, and questioned why the government couldn't conduct such exams.
The protest site witnessed heavy police deployment as students held placards seeking answers from the government over alleged failures and demanded the resignation of Education minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
