Several Karnataka Youth Congress workers were arrested on Sunday while attempting to blockade the BJP office in Malleswaram in protest against alleged irregularities in the NEET examination and a series of student suicides. The demonstrators gathered near the BJP office and shouted slogans against the central government, accusing it of failing to address the concerns of lakhs of students.
The Youth Congress alleged that the police resorted to lathi-charges to disperse its members during the protest, describing it as a cowardly act aimed at suppressing the voice of the people and hiding the truth. The Karnataka Pradesh Youth Congress Committee president condemned the police action, emphasizing that peaceful protest is a constitutional right in a democracy.
