The involvement of Sonia Gandhi and the detention of Priyanka Gandhi Vadra signal that the Congress party is elevating the NEET-UG paper leak from a policy grievance to a high-visibility political confrontation. By centering the protest around the Gandhi family, the opposition aims to maximize media coverage and pressure the government into a more transparent investigation of the examination process.
