Srinagar, June 24: National Conference Vice-President and former chief minister of J&K Monday said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi should have spoken over the NEET row instead of attacking the opposition on the first day of Parliament session.
Omar said that it would have been in the fitness of things for the Prime Minister to spare a few words for the young men and women for whom the NEET issue matters.
The former J&K chief minister was responding to the remarks of Prime Minister which he expressed with media persons in the premises of Parliament before joining the first session of Lok Sabha that began today.
“While attacking the opposition is the prerogative of the Hon PM & we wouldn’t expect BJP being humbled in the recent polls to change that, it would have been in the fitness of things for the Hon PM to spare a few words for the young men & women for whom the #NEET scandal is the only issue that matters,” he said on X.
“Exam pe charcha isn’t a one off but a long-term commitment to the interests & concerns of students,” Abdullah said.
