The protests against the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) have been gaining momentum in Bihar. Reports from the ground indicate that students and locals have taken to the streets in several districts to express their discontent. The situation turned volatile in Katihar, Darbhanga, and Begusarai, where stone pelting was reported. The exact cause of the unrest is attributed to the difficulties faced by students in preparing for and appearing in the NEET exam.
The demonstrations have brought attention to the challenges faced by students in rural and underprivileged areas, who often lack access to quality educational resources and coaching facilities.
As the situation continues to unfold, authorities are urged to address the grievances of the protesting students and work towards finding a solution that benefits all stakeholders.
