Ghosh challenged the political double standards regarding the handling of academic scandals, noting that while opposition leaders demand the resignation of Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, they ignore the multiple leaks reported in Punjab. He specifically labeled Kejriwal the de facto leader of Punjab, pointing to three distinct instances of question paper leaks in the state that have occurred without official condemnation from the party leadership.
The political friction intensified on July 28, when BJP members, including Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal, staged a demonstration at the Parliament premises. The protesters demanded the resignation of Punjab Education Minister Harjot Singh Bains, citing a series of compromised exams, including the Punjab Teacher Eligibility Test and the Class 12 English examination. These incidents have fueled a wider outcry, with the Shiromani Akali Dal and Punjab Congress MPs also calling for accountability from Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann. Ghosh pledged that further inquiries would be used to expose the full extent of the systemic failures, vowing that those who instigated or ignored these breaches would face consequences.
