Complaint against Noida teen who ‘abused’ PM Modi at NEET protest dropped
Lawyer Smriti Singh, who had lodged the complaint, said that the FIR was initially filed against eight girls, with the Noida teen being the first among them.
A complaint against a teenager from Noida who allegedly abused Prime Minister Modi during a NEET protest has been dropped. The complaint was initially filed against eight girls, with the Noida teen being the first among them, according to Smriti Singh, the lawyer who lodged the complaint.
The development comes amid ongoing protests related to the NEET paper leak. In Patna, hundreds of students and youth activists recently took to the streets, accusing the Bihar government of failing to release students arrested during last month's NEET paper leak protests.
Protesters demanded the immediate release of all students still in jail and the withdrawal of criminal cases registered against those arrested during the statewide agitation. Nearly 600 people were detained by Bihar Police during last month's protests, with around half released after being identified as minors.
