The fight against NEET is the next phase of the struggle for social justice: Stalin
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin said on Thursday that Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s refusal to meet the MPs of all political parties from Tamil Nadu to discuss the NEET Bill was against democracy.
“The government’s efforts are aimed at fulfilling the aspirations of eight crore people of Tamil Nadu and helping students realise their dream. As Mr. Shah has not given an appointment to the Tamil Nadu delegation, the request has been submitted at his office,” Mr. Stalin said in a suo motu statement in the Assembly.
Mr. Stalin said Tamil Nadu was a model for other States in upholding social justice, and the history of Tamil Nadu and the Dravidian movement would underscore the fact that success was the result of prolonged struggles of people. “The State achieved the development only through these struggles. The fight against NEET is the next phase of the struggle for social justice, and we will not go back even an inch from our commitment.”
