Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is set to visit Darbhanga, Bihar, on May 15, as part of the ‘Shiksha Nyay Samvad’ initiative, aimed at addressing education sector challenges in the state.
Focus on Education Reforms
The public outreach program, announced by Kanhaiya Kumar, national head of Congress’ NSUI, will see over 60 Congress leaders engaging with students across Bihar. The initiative seeks to highlight issues such as delayed academic sessions, question paper leaks, and suppression of student protests.
Nyay Patra: A Charter for Educational Justice
Congress leaders will visit colleges, universities, and hostels, gathering student feedback to form the ‘Nyay Patra’, a commitment document outlining education reforms if the INDIA bloc forms the next government in Bihar.
Political Context and Upcoming Elections
With Bihar’s assembly elections approaching, the Congress aims to mobilize public support through this initiative, challenging the BJP-led NDA government’s education policies.
Rahul Gandhi’s Bihar Outreach
This marks Rahul Gandhi’s fourth visit to Bihar in five months, reflecting the party’s intensified ground-level engagement ahead of the elections.
