NEET is a new version of old conspiracy: Stalin
The Hindu
‘It is meant to deny education to people based on their social status’
Chief Minister M.K. Stalin said on Sunday that the DMK was opposing NEET not just for the sake of politics but because it was a new version of the conspiracy to deny education to people based on their social status.
“Education has been denied to people for centuries. They have had access to education in the last few decades as a result of many struggles. Education offers them a qualification and status. NEET is a new version of the conspiracy to deny education to people because of their status,” he said, launching a virtual campaign for the urban local bodies elections.
“We are under no compulsion to politicise NEET. The BJP government at the Centre is pursuing a lot of anti-people policies and they need to be opposed. It is not just NEET. We will oppose all the policies and schemes that are against Tamil Nadu and its people,” he said.
