Electoral scenario will change in 2029, NEET abolition will be first voice in Parliament: T.N. Minister Aadhav Arjuna
Leader of the Opposition Udhayanidhi Stalin said the Chennai city police had denied permission for a memorial meeting planned by students, youth and family members.
Tamil Nadu's Public Works Department Minister Aadhav Arjuna claimed the electoral landscape in India would shift by 2029 during the Lok Sabha elections, with the abolition of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) as the first issue to be addressed in Parliament. Speaking at the Assembly on the ninth death anniversary of S. Anitha, who died by suicide, Arjuna paid tribute to her sacrifice and urged students to remain confident, emphasizing that the political situation would change and answer the deaths.
Anitha, born into a socially disadvantaged community, was the first student to challenge NEET in the Supreme Court, setting an example for others. The leader of the Opposition, Udhayanidhi Stalin, questioned the Chennai city police's denial of permission for a memorial meeting planned by students, youth, and family members. Arjuna explained that the permission was denied due to the expected crowd and vehicular movement during the Velankanni Matha Church and Ellaiamman Temple festivals, offering to facilitate the meeting at another venue if needed.
