Modi Forgives Students in Cockroach Protests, Says They Were Misled

Indian PM Narendra Modi said he forgives students who abused him during "Cockroach" protests over leaked exam papers, calling them "misled children" who need guidance, not punishment. The protests forced Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation and led to a government pledge to drop cases, yet hundreds remain arrested and supporters have doxed female students. A bill to tighten exam leak penalties has been introduced.
