Big Move: Sena UBT Chief Uddhav Thackeray To Visit Jantar Mantar On July 22

Mumbai: The politics over the alleged NEET paper leak has intensified in the national capital, with Nationalist Congress Party (SP) chief Sharad Pawar and MP Supriya Sule joining protesters at Jantar Mantar and expressing solidarity with them. While on the other hand, the Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi has begun a dharna outside Prime Minister Narendra Modi's residence. Amid the ongoing protests, further reports suggest that Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray is also set to visit Jantar Mantar.

According to ABP Majha, Shiv Sena (UBT) Chief Uddhav Thackeray is set to visit Jantar Mantar on Wednesday, July 22.

Gandhi's appeal to citizens

Rahul Gandhi has urged every citizen to join the Congress protest, stating that the alleged attack on students was an attack on every Indian family. Gandhi, taking to his X (formerly Twitter) account, launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and blamed him for the clash.

In his post, he wrote, "Prime Minister Modi thinks he can escape without giving answers, without facing any consequences - he won't be able to, not at all this time."

Further appealing to citizens to join the protest, he wrote, "I appeal to every patriotic Indian who believes that our students should get justice - join our dharna in front of the Prime Minister's residence."

The appeal for the protest comes after a violent clash broke out at Jantar Mantar, where RPF personnel and police officials allegedly thrashed protesters. Meanwhile, several viral videos also showed stone-pelting and violence from the protesters' side.
