Congress leader Rahul Gandhi led a protest march to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's residence, demanding action over alleged leaks in the NEET and other examination papers, while also opposing police action against student protesters. During the protest, Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, and other Congress leaders staged a sit-in before being detained by the Delhi Police after refusing to disperse.
Congress called for the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and sought a parliamentary discussion on the alleged paper leaks. Efforts to resolve the impasse included talks between Rahul Gandhi and Union Minister Jitendra Singh, but they were unsuccessful in reaching a resolution.
The protest followed clashes during a demonstration led by Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge. While the government expressed its willingness to discuss the issue, it emphasized that it would not tolerate violence. Prime Minister Modi reiterated the need to prevent examination paper leaks and highlighted the government's action against those involved.
Following the protest near Prime Minister's residence, the detained leaders were taken away by the police in a bus.
