Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi will join the ‘Students’ Goonj’ program in Indore, engaging with youth on education, exam leaks and unemployment.
Rahul Gandhi arrived in Indore on Thursday to take part in the ‘Students’ Goonj’ forum, a platform that brings together students, youth activists and education experts. The opposition leader is scheduled to speak for about an hour, fielding questions from the audience on a range of concerns that affect young Indians.
During the session, Gandhi is expected to address the quality of higher education, the prevalence of paper‑leak scandals in competitive exams, and the growing unemployment challenge faced by recent graduates. He has repeatedly warned that a system that silences questioning students becomes a threat to democratic values.
The event, organized by local student groups and supported by several NGOs, aims to create a dialogue between policymakers and the younger generation. Observers note that Gandhi’s appearance underscores the political relevance of education‑related grievances ahead of upcoming state and national elections.
