NEW DELHI, Jul 23
Prime Minister Narendra Modi vowed on Thursday "stringent punishment" for those involved in exam fraud that has fuelled student anger, in his first direct comments tied to major protests challenging his Government.
The comments came after thousands of protesters, led by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), rallied in New Delhi on Wednesday, triggering fresh clashes with the police. "Nothing is more important than the welfare and future of our youth," he said in a social media post, promising to set up fast-track Courts to punish those involved in question paper leaks. TNIE
