Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Friday came out in support of protesting students in Bihar and criticised the BJP for allegedly destroying the future of the youth with its failed recruitment process.
In a social media post on X, Gandhi said, “BJP is cutting the thumb of the youth of India just like Ekalavya and destroying their future”.
Accusing the party for failing in government recruitment, he said, “First, recruitment is not announced. Even if recruitment is announced, the exams are not held on time. If exams are held, the papers are leaked. And when the youth demand justice, their voice is ruthlessly crushed”.
The former Congress President said, “After the recent incidents in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, now two students protesting against irregularities in MPPSC in Madhya Pradesh have been put in jail. That too, when the Chief Minister himself had met the students and assured them of considering their demands. The BJP government has broken the trust of the students and strangled the democratic system”.
“We are with the students in their fight for their rights. We will not let the BJP suppress the voice of the rights of the youth of the country at any cost,” the Raebareli MP said.
