Some even said that the Parliament must go on since the same advice was given by the government to NEET/JEE students who appeared for their exams in the middle of a pandemic.
If you’re gonna force millions of students to go out and give exams instead of postponing them, then parliament should be forced to go on too https://t.co/ecHq872bqJ
