Uddhav and Aaditya Thackeray launch a scathing attack at Shivaji Park over the NEET paper leak; call to 'change the government'
Mumbai: The demand for Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation over the NEET paper leak has become a minor issue; the need now is to change the entire central government, urged Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray.
The Shiv Sena (Thackeray faction), led by MLA Aaditya Thackeray, organized a massive protest at Shivaji Park to support the ongoing agitation at Delhi's Jantar Mantar, spearheaded by Sonam Wangchuk and Abhijit Deepke. Thousands of youths responded enthusiastically to the event.
In his speech, Uddhav Thackeray said, "This government cannot stop paper leaks, cannot provide employment to the youth, and cannot answer to the people. Therefore, we don't just want Pradhan [the Minister] to go; we need to change the government itself. The fire ignited among the youth will reduce this government to ashes."
Lashing out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government, Thackeray remarked that while the government is willing to hold talks with Pakistan, it refuses to engage with Sonam Wangchuk, a scientist working for the nation. "Is this the 'Hindu Rashtra' envisioned by the Sangh?" he asked.
Recalling Anna Hazare's agitation, Thackeray said, "During Manmohan Singh's tenure, the government engaged in dialogue, but today, despite being in Delhi, Modi is unwilling to speak with Wangchuk." He also recalled the contributions of Wangchuk's father.
Criticism over calling youth 'cockroaches'
Reacting strongly to the government's use of the term 'cockroach' [to describe protesters], Uddhav Thackeray said, "If the youth who raise their voices for the country are cockroaches, then we are all cockroaches. Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, and Sukhdev were also youths. Insulting the youth is an insult to the nation."
Aaditya Thackeray also announced a demand for the Prime Minister's resignation. During the agitation, a resolve to save the Constitution and democracy was expressed through human chains, torchlight processions, and candlelight marches.
