Summary
The speaker criticizes the government for not taking responsibility for the exam leaks and subsequent student suicides, and praises the protesting students for being informed and demanding better futures.
“These kids are much smarter than us, they are much more well informed and they want better futures which the government is trying to deny them.”From the report
ministers accepting moral responsibility even though they are not personally to blame is a pretty well established Indian tradition Shastri did it after the train crash as far back as 1956. yeah mother Rao Sindhya did it after a plane crash in 1992. Nitesh Kumar again in 1999 Suresh Prabhu 2017. Today, after multiple exam leaks affecting millions of students and resulting in suicides, the minister refuses to resign. Doesn't that suggest that our political value system has degraded and our moral responses have devalued? Yeah, I don't think the level of political discourse has been this low ever in the world at any point and accepting moral responsibilities just words the point is they should do something about it they should swing into action if it bothers them and obviously doesn't so that is why they don't do anything about it and they just wait for it to die down. Now these kids are making noise, they will be quiet. No, these kids will not be quiet. These kids know what they are doing and these kids know what they are asking for. And these kids are much smarter than us, they are much more well informed and they want better futures which the government is trying to deny them.
