Congress MP and Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi recently met and interacted with some students in Prayagraj. The event was named as ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj’, where he targeted the Narendra Modi government.
Taking up heating issues of employment and paper leaks, Rahul Gandhi said Congress had built five avenues for employment, this government has shut all of them.
Students work hard for years and what they get is only paper leaks. Yet students could not speak up due to fear. The youth of India confronted the fear and changed the country. You raised your voices-not with hatred, but with love.
Youth Power
Rahul Gandhi remarked that India possesses a vast youth population and holds the largest amount of data; without your data, AI holds no significance.
“You are charged fees for engineering and medical education, yet the resulting certificates are meaningless because they do not secure you employment”. Rahul stated that India’s 400 million energetic young people are its greatest strength. Neither the US, China, nor Russia can match the potential of India’s youth.”
Throughout the event, Rahul Gandhi interacted with the students and inquired about their challenges. The students detailed the problems arising from recruitment issues and exam paper leaks. Addressing the paper leak issue, Rahul Gandhi noted that out of every 1,000 young Indians, only 12 secure jobs.
“Your data is appropriated and sold to major corporations like Jio and Adani.” He emphasised that every young citizen is a source of India’s strength.
