Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said the Centre is ready for a discussion on the NEET issue in Parliament, asserting that the government remains committed to addressing students' concerns through democratic debate. He accused Congress leader Rahul Gandhi of exploiting students for political gains and choosing protests over parliamentary engagement, despite the government's willingness to discuss the issue. Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi demanded that Prime Minister Narendra Modi apologise to students over the handling of the NEET controversy and the police action against protesters. Gandhi also reiterated his demand for Pradhan's resignation, alleging the government had failed to adequately address concerns surrounding examination irregularities and student grievances.
