Worry in UP BJP over student protests as pitch grows for damage control before 2027
The Uttar Pradesh Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is increasingly concerned about student protests linked to exam paper leaks, which contributed to its poor performance in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Union Minister and UP BJP chief Pankaj Chaudhary met with students and parents, emphasizing the government's commitment to addressing their concerns and implementing measures to prevent future leaks. This outreach comes as the party aims to bolster its image ahead of the 2027 elections amid rising youth discontent.
