Shweta Sanjiv Bhatt Speaks on Student Concerns
In her statement, Shweta Sanjiv Bhatt said: "This is Shweta Sanjiv Bhatt,
As the wife of a man who dedicated his life to upholding the Constitution, stood for truth without compromise, and continues to pay the price for questioning those in power, I cannot remain silent today."
She said the youth protesting over the issue are seeking a transparent and fair examination system rather than special treatment. "The youth of India are not asking for privilege. They are demanding fairness, transparency, and an education system free from corruption. The NEET paper leak is not merely an examination scandal. It is a betrayal of the trust and aspirations of millions of hardworking students." CJP Calls for Nationwide Peaceful Protests on July 24, Shares SOPs and Campaign Material.
Calls for Dialogue and Accountability
Bhatt criticised the government's response to the protests, saying concerns raised by students should be addressed through accountability and dialogue. "Instead of addressing their legitimate concerns with honesty and accountability, the Government has chosen a path of intimidation and force. A democracy does not respond to its young citizens by suppressing their voices. It listens, it answers, and it acts."
She further said attempts to silence student voices could increase their determination. "Every attempt to silence students only strengthens their resolve. India’s future belongs to these young men and women, not to those who fear their questions."
The statement comes amid ongoing protests organised by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) over alleged irregularities in competitive examinations and demands for reforms in the education system.
The protests have included demonstrations in Delhi and other parts of the country, with the organisation raising concerns about accountability, student rights and the handling of demonstrations.
Bhatt concluded her statement with an appeal for support for students and constitutional values: "Stand with our students. Stand for justice. Stand for the Constitution."
