The Prime Minister has urged citizens to reduce fuel consumption and utilize public transport, prompting government officials to adopt austerity measures. High-ranking ministers and the Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister have reduced convoy sizes, while the Bihar Chief Minister transitioned to an electric vehicle. These actions follow the Indian currency hitting a record low of 95.80 against the dollar due to rising oil prices and geopolitical tensions in West Asia. While a former Reserve Bank of India governor supports these economic measures, the opposition labels them tokenism, citing mismanagement of the impending crisis and the blockade of Hormuz. Concurrently, authorities are investigating an escalating medical entrance exam paper leak scandal involving arrests in Maharashtra and Rajasthan. This probe has exposed a nationwide exam mafia and alleged political links, leading education experts to debate the structural flaws of the current testing system. Transparency activists and medical professionals are calling for systemic reforms and public clarity regarding both the fuel crisis and the integrity of national examinations.
