<p>"Serious questions are being raised about the state's education system. If a timely and impartial inquiry is not conducted and meritorious students do not get justice, we will take to the streets to fight for the students," Matele said.</p>
<p>The NCP (SP) maintained that it stands firmly with students and called on the government to ensure complete transparency in the examination process while addressing all allegations surrounding the MHT-CET results.</p>
