भ्रष्ट, अन्यायी, पक्षपाती, बेईमान - ये चार शब्द मेरे नहीं, ये देश के छात्र आज भारत की शिक्षा व्यवस्था के लिए इस्तेमाल कर रहे हैं।

और सच यही है - भारत की शिक्षा व्यवस्था अब एक बेईमान वसूली तंत्र बन चुकी है।

जो व्यवस्था बच्चों के भविष्य को तैयार करने के लिए बनी थी, वो आज उन्हें और उनके परिवार को कर्ज़, तनाव और निराशा में धकेल रही है।

इसी भ्रष्टाचार ने पेपर लीक माफ़िया को जन्म दिया - जो तैयारी कर रहे लाखों छात्रों की सालों की मेहनत एक झटके में लूट लेता है।

यहां दोषी vendors और अधिकारियों को मिलती है tender और तरक्की। और सजा किसे मिलती है? छात्रों को, जिन्हें टूटे सपनों के साथ अकेले छोड़ दिया जाता है।

मोदी सरकार और शिक्षा मंत्री यह सब देख रहे हैं। पर उन्होंने चुप्पी चुनी है - जवाबदेही से मुँह मोड़ लिया है। और मीडिया में? बस एक लंबा सन्नाटा।

अब बहुत हुआ - अब वक़्त है शिक्षा में Revolution का।

17 जुलाई, देहरादून - मेरे साथ आइए, ‘छात्रों की गूँज’ को और बुलंद करें।

Delhi EV Reality Check

An India Today ground reality check across the national capital reveals a major breakdown in Delhi's electric vehicle charging infrastructure. Despite the Delhi government's ambitious #EVpolicy promising subsidies, tax exemptions, and over thirty thousand charging points, key locations fail to deliver. Near Parliament at the Central Secretariat, five out of six charging points are out of service.

Watch this report to know more.

"All citizens are being made slaves of Indian Government. They cannot stage protests, they cannot agitate-What is all this? Now so many papers have been leaked. If people protest, you will slap cases... What is this? It is the right of the citizens to protest.

The petitioner has just raised slogans like 'BJP Government Murdabad', 'Amit Shah Murdabad'... Why citizens can't raise such slogans? Why externment orders for such slogans?" - Bombay High Court Judge Justice Madhav Jamdar asks.

मणिपुर सालों से जल रहा है, और आज फिर नफ़रत और हिंसा की आग में 20 घर राख हो गए।

दो सरकारों और राष्ट्रपति शासन के बावजूद संघर्ष गहराता ही जा रहा है। हज़ारों लोग अपनी जान गंवा चुके हैं, अनगिनत परिवार उजड़ गए हैं - मणिपुर जिस असहनीय पीड़ा से गुज़र रहा है, उसकी कल्पना भी मुश्किल है।

यह मोदी सरकार की उस विभाजनकारी विचारधारा का नतीजा है, जो लोगों को धर्म, जाति, भाषा, क्षेत्र और पहचान के नाम पर बाँटती है।

आज मणिपुर ही नहीं, पूरा देश प्रधानमंत्री से संवेदना के दो शब्द की भी उम्मीद छोड़ चुका है, कार्रवाई की बात तो दूर गई।

मणिपुर बेहतर का हक़दार है - और इसके लिए भारत जोड़ना ही एकमात्र रास्ता है।

#ExpressInvestigation | For every candidate who cracked India’s civil services this year under the Economically Weaker Section quota, the son of a security guard or the daughter of a railway porter, there are many others on the same quota list whose backgrounds tell a different story: sons and daughters of businessmen, IIT graduates, alumni of private schools in the city charging over a lakh a year in fees.
There were 104 candidates selected in the Civil Services Examination 2025 under the 10 per cent quota for the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) — those from general category families with an annual income of less than Rs 8 lakh. An investigation by The Indian Express has found a gap between the scheme’s stated purpose and the profiles of many it has come to benefit.

Nitin Gadkari’s blind obsession with E20 fuel blending is another example of headline-driven policymaking replacing evidence-based governance.

Millions of Indians own vehicles that were never designed for E20. Instead of addressing compatibility concerns, consumer costs, fuel efficiency, and long-term engine performance through transparent data, the Government is asking citizens to bear the burden of its policy experiments.

In the debate in Lok Sabha on Operation Sindoor, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh lied to the people of India. It was a straightforward, clear-cut lie - to mislead the House.

How could he, in July 2025, say that no Indian soldier was martyred, and then a year later the forces announce that we have lost 6 jawans?

It is a grave insult to the families of these 6 martyrs and the entire armed forces that the people of India were not told of their bravery and ultimate sacrifice.

They died in service of our nation, while defending it against our enemies, and the so-called nationalist Government simply lied about their martyrdom.

It is a well-established norm that if a Minister misleads the House or withholding information, it constitutes a breach of privilege, amounting to contempt of the House.

In this regard, I have written to the Hon’ble Lok Sabha Speaker requesting privilege proceedings be initiated against the Defence Minister.

VIDEO | Delhi: Ganga Ram Hospital dietician Aakanksha Arya explains the nutritional impact of replacing eggs with paneer and soybeans in mid-day meals.

She says, "Eggs cannot truly be replaced by any other single food. They are an excellent source of high-quality protein and also provide vitamin B12, vitamin D, essential amino acids, and healthy fats... If schools currently serve eggs once or twice a week, replacing them would require providing an equivalent amount of protein from other foods, which many children may not be be able to consume in sufficient quantities. There is also an economic concern, as many families may not be able to afford eggs at home if they are removed from school meals. Eggs play a vital role in a child's growth and development, so they should not be replaced."

🚨 #ExpressInvestigation | The Union Minister of State for Agriculture Bhagirath Choudhary received a ₹99.03 lakh subsidy for a commercial cucumber farming project under a scheme run by the ministry he serves in.

While the final approval was granted by an NHB project approval committee that does not include the minister, Choudhary is the ex-officio Vice-President of the NHB board that oversees its functioning.

The project, worth ₹1.99 crore, was among 467 approved under the scheme in 2025.

सत्ता के अहंकार में डूबी मोदी सरकार अब इस मुकाम पर पहुँच गई है कि अपने अधिकारों, निष्पक्ष परीक्षाओं और सुरक्षित भविष्य की मांग करने वाले छात्रों को ही शिक्षा मंत्री “आतंकवादी” कह रहे हैं।

ज़रा सोचिए - जिसकी नाकामी से इतने पेपर लीक हुए, जिसके राज में 20 बच्चों ने जान दे दी, जिसने करोड़ों युवाओं का भविष्य अंधेरे में धकेल दिया - वो आज पीड़ित बच्चों और उनकी आवाज़ उठाने वालों को “दहशतगर्द” बता रहा है।

पर यह कोई नई बात नहीं: अन्नदाता किसानों को "आंदोलनजीवी और परजीवी" कहा। सवाल पूछने वाले को “Anti-National” कहा। और अब युवाओं को “दहशतगर्द।”

जो भी सरकार से सवाल पूछे - उसे देशद्रोही बता दो, यही इनकी पूरी राजनीति है।

धर्मेंद्र प्रधान जी, देश के करोड़ों युवाओं से तुरंत माफ़ी माँगिए और अपनी नाकामियों के लिए इस्तीफ़ा दीजिए।

और रही मेरी बात - आप मुझ पर जितने चाहें हमले कर लीजिए। मैंने कोटा में कहा था, और फिर कहता हूँ: यह शिक्षा व्यवस्था आज सिर्फ़ एक वसूली तंत्र बन गई है। मैं इसे ऐसे ही नहीं रहने दूँगा।

हर बच्चे को सस्ती, अच्छी शिक्षा और निष्पक्ष परीक्षा मिले - इस आवाज़ को उठाना मैं कभी बंद नहीं करूँगा।

Mohan Yadav wears many hats. As Madhya Pradesh CM, he decides where to build roads in the state. And his family buys land where his government is building roads.

Yadav and family have bought 168 acres of such prime land in Ujjain since he became CM in December 2023, according to an Indian Express investigation.

The temple town that will host Kumbh in 2028 is undergoing one of the biggest infrastructure transformations and Yadav & Family is capitalising on it.

They are also ready to defend against the charges of conflict of interest and impropriety. They claim to have run the real estate empire for a long time and ask if they should shut shop simply because the BJP leader has become the CM.
