04:45[00:02] n't know its value, then give it to someone else. It is not happening, give it to someone else. I understood and I had a friend who even committed suicide. My NEET exam paper which was cancelled, there was so much pressure in a month, there was so much tension. I had very thick
[00:17] so much tension. I had very thick hair, due to tension all my hair fell off. My name is Mithilesh Kumar. Which district is it? Mithilesh Bhai, my district is Madhepura. We are students, we are preparing for NEET. My NEET
[00:31] exam paper which was cancelled, there was so much pressure in a month. There was so much tension. He had very thick hair. Due to tension, all my hair fell out and I had a friend who Sorry. Yes. That's why both of us friends have just
[00:46] come together. Imagine, it is very difficult to complete such a big chapter in one month, there are total 30 chapters of NEET. Tell me how will you cover 30 chapters in one month and how will you attempt the questions and how will you answer them in just one month. If you ask even a fool,
[01:04] in just one month. If you ask even a fool, ? If you can do it then first ask this from a foolish person, I am a student, at least you should ask a foolish person, if he has
[01:19] said then how did Modi get so much knowledge, I want to say this, knowledge, I want to say this, in the Lok Sabha, first of all if we are students, we are
[01:33] children, if we have so much knowledge, why doesn't our Prime Minister have knowledge, I knowledge, why doesn't our Prime Minister have knowledge, I elected, I mean leaders are jokers, we had come here to
[01:46] mean leaders are jokers, we had come here to find humor that someone's friend is committing suicide and the next person is asking you back that if you get a chance of one month, then you will read 30 chapters and
[02:00] complete your preparation, what humor will you do in it, what roast will you do, what fun and what banter will you do, we have come to talk about those reels of Bihar which have gone viral, but when we meet such students, tears come to the eyes.
[02:13] Come here friend, show his eyes to the camera, listen. We are from Madhepura district, Bihar. My name is Mithilesh Kumar. I am a NEET student. This time my marks are 370. But the next time it came to 350. But this time the
[02:29] physics question was a bit tough. So because of this I could not get that many marks. And this time due to some pressure I could score only 370 marks. Because of pressure. This is what I want to say. If NTA is conducting any exam then it should conduct it properly.
[02:44] If you don't know the method of conducting the exam, if you do n't know its value, then give it to n't know its value, then give it to someone else, if it is not possible then give it to someone else. You will not be able to understand. If it cannot be done then don't get it done. If
[02:56] yes, it is not possible then you cannot take the exam. But in such a situation, where will there be humor, roast and banter? Did you hear Mithilesh ? Those aspirants of NEET. My point is that it is very important to bring reforms in education. Education has become very expensive.
[03:09] Government schools should be built and arrangements should be made in them. Poor children face a lot of difficulty in studying. You must have heard that 90,000 government schools have been closed. 90,000 government schools have been closed. They should be reopened. And
[03:21] government schools are necessary to promote education. Because I passed 12th in 2023. The fee was Rs 300. Today there are 6000 private schools. It became very difficult to study in private. What do the family members say? His earnings have increased.
[03:37] So according to that, government education is necessary. Yes, government schools should be opened and fees should be cheap. Send children to government schools only expensive and perfect. So the core issue of these types of grievances is
[03:51] self-education. My name is Jaspreet Singh. So as everyone knows about NEET but NTI also conducts UGC NET exam. My own exam was held on 25th of last month and what NTA usually does is that it
[04:04] releases the answer key within a week or 10 days. But this time a very strange situation has arisen that it has been a month for us. Neither any answer key has come nor any result has come. I would like to appeal to every student of NTA to please raise this issue
[04:18] further so that pressure is created on NTA and NTA releases the answer key as soon as possible. I myself went to the NTA office yesterday. I have given the application to madam there. But ma'am has said that I will send that application to the higher authorities and whatever reply comes from there, you will get it
[04:30] online. But no response online yet. It's been a month. So I would like to appeal to every student and even NTS to raise this issue and Neeraj Yadav. Where are you from? Siwan Vihar.
[04:45] protest. Why Neeraj Bhai? The paper was written. NEET paper was written. So did it cause you any personal harm or were the not suffer any personal pain but my brothers and sisters
[04:58] suffered. This country has suffered and 21 children have committed suicide. You tell me one thing. Why will you come only when there is personal trouble or will you come only when some other Indian is also in trouble? The biggest question is who were those goons in civil dress.
[05:11] We are asking. That's exactly what we're asking. Their biggest question is who were those in civil dress? And secondly, if they are standing in solidarity then how can it harm anyone? Let me know
[05:23] if you have any problem. We are continuously covering from the ground the protest against NEET from Jantar Mantar, against the leak of NEET paper and the demand for the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan, the Education Minister. Stay tuned Switch.
