Aam Aadmi Party National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal launched a sharp attack on the BJP government after his party leader Sanjay Singh alleged that his discussion with students about the recent paper leak was disrupted by Uttar Pradesh Police and government officials in Prayagraj.
Kejriwal's Response on Social Media
Sharing Sanjay Singh's post on X, Kejriwal targeted the BJP, accusing it of failing to address issues like paper leaks while actively working to prevent discussions on them. "The BJP has no problem with paper leaks. The problem is with the discussion happening on paper leaks," Kejriwal said.
Sanjay Singh's Allegations
Earlier on Monday, Sanjay Singh alleged that the UP police and government officials attempted to stop his talk with students on paper leaks in Prayagraj, stating that "dictatorship has reached its peak." Sharing a video on X, Singh said, "In Prayagraj, UP, dictatorship has reached its peak--even in closed rooms, permission to discuss the future of millions of students is denied; the administration has arrived to stop even talk of paper leaks. Modi-Yogi's double-engine government has completely failed and wants to crush the opposition."
In the video, Sanjay Singh confronted the officials over the disruption, questioning whether it has become "illegal" to talk about paper leaks that affect lakhs of students in the country. "Permission is required for a public place. We are discussing in the conference room. Are we holding any talks against the country? We are discussing the paper leaks through which you have also gained your post. Your children are also affected by these leaks. Is it illegal to talk about them? In a democracy? I am witnessing this for the first time," he told the officials.
Context of the Controversy
This incident comes amid ongoing controversy surrounding NEET-UG 2026, which has been rescheduled for June 21 following allegations of paper leaks and administrative lapses. The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) continues its probe and has made multiple arrests, while protests by student groups have intensified in several parts of the country.
