Rahul Gandhi alleged that the BJP is "cutting the thumb of the youth of India just like Ekalavya, destroying their future."

And when the youth demand justice, their voice is ruthlessly crushed, "Rahul Gandhi alleged in a post in Hindi on X on Friday.
He alleged that two students protesting against the alleged irregularities in Madhya Pradesh Public Service Commission exams were arrested.
"After the recent incidents in UP and Bihar, now two students protesting against the irregularities in MPPSC in Madhya Pradesh have been put in jail. That too when the Chief Minister himself had met the students and assured them of considering their demands. The BJP government has broken the trust of the students and strangled the democratic system," Rahul Gandhi said in response to a tweet from the Congress unit of Madhya Pradesh.
"We are with the students in their fight for their rights. We will not let the BJP suppress the voice of the rights of the youth of the country at any cost," Gandhi said.
Meanwhile, earlier today, supporters of Purnea MP Pappu Yadav, who organised 'rail roko' at Sachiwalay Halt Railway Station to support the students' protest against BPSC, were dispersed by the police.
