In a video message, Dipke appealed to people across the country to back the petition and “put pressure on the system” to ensure accountability.
He argued that the alleged leak and the uncertainty that followed had triggered immense emotional distress among students and families, with many aspirants reporting anxiety, burnout and depression, while some cases of student suicides linked to exam pressure have also sparked nationwide concern.
‘THE SYSTEM FAILED STUDENTS’
In the video message released on Instagram, Dipke said the NEET paper leak issue was not merely about an exam crisis but about the larger collapse of trust in the education system.
“It was the fault of the system which jeopardised the future of more than 22 lakh students,” he said while calling for the resignation of the Education Minister, Dharmendra Pradhan.
He further alleged that despite widespread public anger over the NEET controversy, no meaningful accountability had been fixed at the top level. The demand for resignation, he argued, was necessary to restore confidence among students.
