All education: Budget allocations, Jauhar Uni demolition, and more exam leaks

First, we speak to The Indian Express’ Udit Misra about why education’s share of the Union Budget has steadily declined over the past decade, what that reveals about the government’s priorities, and how underinvestment may be shaping everything from exam leaks to faculty shortages amid the ongoing student protests.Next, we talk to The Indian Express’ Maulshree Seth about the demolition order issued against Mohammad Ali Jauhar University in Rampur, why thousands of students have launched an indefinite protest, and what the move could mean for the future of higher education in the region. (16:10)And in the end, we look at why Uttarakhand Technical University cancelled two examinations after an external paper setter allegedly leaked questions to students, reigniting concerns over exam integrity in the state.
