Delhi BJP protests against AAP, demands Punjab Education Minister's resignation over 'paper leaks'
The Delhi BJP staged a protest against the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government, demanding the resignation of Punjab's Education Minister over alleged exam paper leaks. The BJP claims these leaks have negatively impacted the futures of 30 lakh students in the state.
Why it matters
This highlights the ongoing political friction between the BJP and AAP, specifically regarding governance and educational integrity ahead of the 2027 Punjab Assembly elections.
The Delhi BJP on Thursday (July 30, 2026), staged a protest at the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) office near Mandi House in New Delhi, demanding the resignation of the Punjab Education Minister over alleged exam paper leaks in the state.
The protesters, led by Delhi BJP president Harsh Malhotra, gathered near AAP headquarters at Ferozshah Road and demanded the resignation of Education Minister Harjot Singh Bains and other Ministers, alleging six exam paper leaks under the four-and-a-half-year-old government in the State.
AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal recently claimed that no paper leaks happened in Punjab in the past years under the party government. He, however, said that some students in an exam at two centres tried to use digital pens for cheating but were immediately caught and the paper was not leaked.
