A controversy surrounding a CBSE Class 12 answer sheet has now taken a political turn, with Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi meeting the students at the centre of the row and criticising those who targeted them online. The students had earlier raised concerns after one of them, Vedant Shrivastava, claimed that the Physics answer sheet uploaded under his roll number did not belong to him. The issue sparked widespread discussion on social media and eventually prompted the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) to acknowledge an error. Days later, Rahul Gandhi met Vedant and other students who were involved in raising concerns about the matter, questioning the criticism and online abuse they faced after speaking up.In the video shared by Rahul Gandhi, Vedant spoke about the criticism he received after raising concerns publicly. "They started calling us anti-national and Pakistani," the student said. He further claimed that some people believed "that we are some deep state agents that are trying to create a rest in India." Responding to Vedant's account, Rahul Gandhi criticised those who targeted the students over the issue.
