Event Summary

The Modi government is planning a nationwide 'One Day, One University' outreach programme under which a Union minister will visit one university every day to engage with Gen Z students, hear their concerns, and explain youth-focused welfare schemes. The initiative comes amid student protests over the NEET paper leak and follows a police crackdown on protesters in July. Education Minister Pralhad Joshi and Youth Affairs and Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya are coordinating the visits, which were discussed at a India — Union Council of Ministers meeting chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The programme aims to strengthen government engagement with students and address campus issues.
