Rahul Gandhi Meets Families of NEET Victims Who Ended Their Lives

New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday on Saturday met the families that have lost their loved ones to NEET-related suicides in Tamil Nadu.

He asserted that students are told to work honestly in a system that is not honest with them.

“Students Need PM’s Apology, Not His Forgiveness”

Interacting at Mamallapuram with the relatives of those who took the extreme step vis-a-vis NEET, Gandhi said: "Nothing is more painful than seeing a parent grieve their child.

Rahul Gandhi said Prime Minister Narendra Modi should apologise to the country's students for giving them a "corrupt" exam system and that they don't want his "forgiveness".

Gandhi said he (Modi) has not met a single grieving parent.

"He has not sat with a single student whose future was stolen by a leaked paper.” LoP Rahul said.

"India's students do not need his forgiveness. They all owed his apology," the Congress leader said.

“Modi’s Audacity to Forgive”

In a post on X, Gandhi said the prime minister has the audacity to speak of "forgiving" students even when he did not visit a single parent whose children committed suicide after they felt their career was destroyed due to leaked papers and cancelled exams.

"Nothing is more painful than seeing a parent grieve for their child.

"Behind every young life lost is a family carrying pain that will never leave them - and serious questions about a broken education system," he said in his post after meeting the families of those who lost their children during his day-long visit to Tamil Nadu.

"Leaked papers. Cancelled exams. Years of preparation were destroyed overnight. Our students are told to work honestly in a system that is not honest with them.

"And the Prime Minister has the audacity to speak of 'forgiving' students," the leader of opposition in Lok Sabha said.
