NSUI Stages Protest Against NTA Over UGC-NET Irregularities

| India Youth Uprising

The Congress-affiliated National Students' Union of India (NSUI) protests outside the NTA office in Delhi against the UGC-NET June 2026 irregularities, arguing the episode shows the agency has not been meaningfully reformed despite the NEET crisis and the new amendment act. Delhi Police and CRPF personnel detain demonstrators after protesters attempt to breach barricades; NSUI says several of its members were injured during the police action. NSUI national president Vinod Jakhar demands the NTA chairman's resignation, saying 'the mistake is NTA's, but the punishment is for the students' — keeping public trust in national testing infrastructure a live issue as the movement's 75th day passes.
