The world deserves to know what many students in India are going through. Young people demanding accountability over repeated exam leak allegations were met with tear gas, lathi charges, barricades, and detentions instead of open dialogue. No matter where you stand politically, students raising their voices deserve to be listened to, not pushed back with force. Please continue covering this so their voices are not ignored.

There is nothing illegitimate about students protesting peacefully. Instead of responding with force, the government should sit down with them and engage in meaningful dialogue. That is how a democracy is supposed to function.

These young people are the country's future. They will become our doctors, engineers, lawyers, teachers, and public servants. The very least the government can do is ensure they are not harmed while raising concerns about their own future.

Democracy is built on conversation, not confrontation. Violence has no place in a democratic society. When students speak, the government should listen, because this is ultimately about the future of our country. 🙏 🇮🇳
