CJP Protest in Delhi: Revanth Expresses Solidarity

Hyderabad: Expressing anguish over the use of force by the Union government to silence protesting youth at Delhi, Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy on Monday expressed his solidarity with the demonstrators at Jantar Mantar in the Capital. He demanded that the security agencies immediately stop using force against unarmed youth.

Revanth Reddy condemned the alleged police action against students protesting over the NEET paper leak issue in New Delhi, in a statement posted on his X handle. Reacting to visuals of students being lathi-charged and tear-gassed during a march towards Parliament, he stated, “Students from across India who converged to demand justice over the NEET paper leak scandal are being beaten up with lathis and tear gas when they were marching to Parliament to draw attention to their struggle,” Revanth Reddy said.

“The Central government is using police force to silence the very youth whose future it has endangered. Every blow struck against a protesting student exposes the BJP’s fear of questions, truth and democratic dissent. I firmly stand with India’s students, and we demand an immediate end to police brutality, accountability in the NEET and other paper leak scandals,” he added.
