Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra hailed the student-led protest as a "victory for the youth of India" after Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned. Calling July 25, 2026, a historic day, she said the people had begun "claiming their country back" and asserted that the government was ultimately forced to "bend to the will of the people." Praising the protesters for following Mahatma Gandhi's path of non-violence, Priyanka Gandhi alleged that students faced pellet guns, tear gas and lathi charges but refused to back down.
She said their peaceful resistance sent a powerful message that governments must remain accountable to the people and listen to the public's voice. Her remarks come amid nationwide protests over the alleged NEET paper leak and growing demands for accountability and reforms in the examination system.
