Rahul Gandhi's Accusations Against PM Modi
On Wednesday, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing him of remaining silent on the alleged large-scale manipulation of the CBSE Class 12 exam results. Gandhi expressed on X that the discrepancies in the CBSE results have left millions of students and their parents across the nation in shock. He questioned Modi's lack of response, accountability, and shame in this matter.
Allegations of a Conspiracy
Gandhi described the situation as a deliberate conspiracy, pointing out that the company COEMPT, which secured the CBSE contract, had previously been involved in similar controversies in Telangana under the name Globarena in 2019. He emphasized that although the name has changed, the intent remains the same. He criticized the decision to entrust the future of 1.8 million children to such a company without any objections raised.
Questions Raised by Gandhi
In his post, Gandhi raised several critical questions:
- Why was the CBSE contract awarded to COEMPT, and who authorized it?
- What rules and procedures were overlooked in the contract awarding process?
- Given COEMPT's previous controversies as Globarena, why did CBSE fail to investigate its background?
- What is the relationship between COEMPT's management and the Modi government?
Call for Investigation
Gandhi demanded an independent investigation into the matter and urged the formation of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to uncover the true culprits behind the alleged scam. Addressing students, he assured them that no one could take away their hard work or future. He vowed to get to the root of this conspiracy and eradicate the corruption permanently.
