After Salman Khan, actor Alia Bhatt has voiced her support for the ongoing Cockroah Janta Party-led student protest over the alleged NEET paper leak.
Her statement comes amid growing criticism from several quarters, including veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah, who recently questioned Bollywood’s silence on the issue. Taking to Instagram, Alia shared a heartfelt note in support of the students.
She wrote, “The last few days have broken my heart and then mended it, again and again, with hope. Behind every student standing their ground is a dream, a family’s hope, a journey of countless sacrifices.
They represent not just themselves but everyone who has supported them, while creating a better path for those who will come after them.”
She added, “Their courage humbles me. Their resolve is a mirror held up to all of us, asking whether we are truly listening to the very people who will inherit and shape this country’s tomorrow. For the students. By the students. The future is theirs. Jai Hind.”
On Thursday night, Salman Khan also expressed his support by sharing a childhood photograph along with a lengthy note on social media.
He wrote, “It was such a peaceful movement. I feel so sad that it had to take a violent turn. My heart goes out to the students and their families who were hurt.
Paper leak is a very serious issue, and I am glad to see that the kids of our country have come together for a better educational system, with the support of their parents.”
