'Questions don't stop with batons': Rahul attacks Bihar govt over BPSC protests
NEW DELHI: Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi criticized the Bihar government over allegations of irregularities and leaks in BPSC exams, questioning the actions taken by authorities. He expressed concern over the use of police force against protesting students, stating, "questions don't stop with batons." The incident occurred following a clash between students and police in Bihar's capital, with police employing water cannons and barricades to halt the demonstrators.
Rahul accused the BJP-JD(U)-led government of failing to address the ongoing concerns of Bihar's youth, noting that the controversy over BPSC exams has been a long-standing issue. He also highlighted the use of an AK-47 by a security personnel during a previous student protest in Bihar, alongside student protests in Delhi and across the nation over the NEET fiasco.
Rahul emphasized that the BJP government's approach, which involves using police as a means to avoid accountability, undermines the future of the youth.
