The ongoing unrest at Jantar Mantar has seen thousands of students and youth protestors congregate to demand sweeping accountability and institutional reforms following recent competitive examination irregularities.
In response to the swelling demonstrations and intense political pressure, Prime Minister Modi utilised a direct digital format to connect with Gen Z, emphasising that the administration views examination malpractices as a matter of grave concern rather than a trivial issue.
During his initial midnight address, which catalysed unprecedented digital engagement and drove a surge of one million new followers overnight, the Prime Minister detailed concrete steps taken over the preceding two and a half months.
He noted that the primary objective of the administration has been safeguarding students from losing a crucial academic year, pointing to the rapid coordination required to organise re-examinations successfully.

In his subsequent address, PM Modi expressed deep appreciation for the dialogue sparked among the younger demographic, remarking that public feedback helps strengthen the bond between leadership and the citizenry.
"This love of yours will remain, and our bond will continue to connect with even more vibrancy," the Prime Minister stated, thanking supporters for their constructive engagement.
