Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, has criticized the Indian national education system, asserting that it is failing the current generation. He specifically highlighted issues including paper leaks, high fees, and decaying infrastructure as factors causing students to lose hope.

As part of his ‘Chhatron ki Goonj’ initiative, Gandhi has invited students, parents, and teachers to share their experiences and ideas through an online platform. This follows previous events held in cities such as Pune, Kota, Dehradun, and Prayagraj. The fifth edition of the initiative is scheduled to take place in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, on September 19.
