Speaking to the media, Former Delhi CM and AAP national convenerArvind Kejriwal says, “Exam papers are being leaked constantly, day after day. There are irregularities in the papers and flaws in the evaluation process… When the NEET paper leaked, 20 students committed suicide, yet the government took no measures to assure anyone that leaks wouldn’t recur. Further leaks followed the NEET incident, and the CBSE evaluation system was compromised, yet no action was taken against the company involved. It appears the government is consumed by arrogance. I want to tell the government: either listen to the voice of the youth, or these very young people will throw you out of power in 2029… I urge the Prime Minister and the country’s 1.4 billion citizens to desire that Sonam Wangchuk be appointed as the Education Minister in his place.”

He adds, “I know the Prime Minister won’t do this; he would fear that Sonam Wangchuk might take revolutionary steps… I want to tell them again: do not be so arrogant. The government that preceded yours was also incredibly arrogant. There is an English saying: ‘History repeats itself.’ It was right here at Jantar Mantar on April 4, 2011, when Anna Hazare sat here. Three years later, the government of that time was voted out. Three years from now, your government will be voted out if you do not listen to the voice of the youth.”
