A way out can be found through talks – Ramdas Athawale
Athawale further said, “Some way out can be found through talks.” I think Abhijeet Deepke also needs to think about this. We say that even if Dharmendra Pradhan resigns, the question remains that how can the paper leak be stopped. Therefore, the government has decided to make a law to stop this. The demands of the students can be discussed. The movement should end quickly.”

Those who leak the paper should get strict punishment – Athawale
The Union Minister further said that I have talked about the issue of NEET paper leak earlier also. Whatever happened is very wrong. The government is going to strengthen the law. PM Modi has announced to file a case in the fast track court. He said, “My party demands that those found guilty in the leaked papers should be given strict punishment.” The government is in talks with the students regarding their ongoing movement.
I am confident that the movement will end as soon as possible – Athawale
He said, “The police had also expressed no objection to the peaceful protest because they had the right to sit, but on July 20, the protesting students had come to Rail Bhavan and were trying to move forward by breaking the barricade. Then the police lathicharged. There was anger among the students, the police beat them up which is not a good thing. It is being fully investigated. The student should get justice. They should protest peacefully. I am confident that the movement will end as soon as possible.”
