AISA calls Bihar bandh over police action on anti-NEET-leak protesters
The student group AISA has called a Bihar bandh to protest police action against students agitating over the alleged NEET paper leak. Marches and sit-ins swept districts including Vaishali, Muzaffarpur and Darbhanga, demanding Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation; effigies of Modi and Pradhan were burnt. In Jehanabad, police fired 20 to 30 rounds after protesters stoned the magistrate's residence.
