Leaders of the I.N.D.I.A bloc plans to address the NEET issue in both houses of Parliament on Friday and will submit notices to this effect, sources have revealed.

Additionally, leaders from various parties have agreed to hold a protest on Monday morning before parliamentary proceedings begin. The protest will focus on the “political vendetta” against opposition leaders, including Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, former Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren, and three West Bengal ministers, involving agencies like the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Enforcement Directorate (ED), and the income-tax department, according to sources, PTI reported.
