MVA MLAs Protest At Maharashtra Legislature Over TET Paper Leak, Demand Resignation
On Monday, June 29, 2026, MLAs from the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) staged a protest on the steps of the Maharashtra legislature in Mumbai. The demonstration was organized to address an alleged Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) paper leak, which has sparked significant controversy across the state. During the protest, the opposition alliance demanded the immediate resignation of the state's Education Minister.
The protest on the legislature steps has intensified political pressure on the Maharashtra state government. Opposition MLAs gathered at the prominent legislative site to register their strong disapproval of the government's handling of the state's examination system.
According to the protesting legislators, the state government has failed to prevent examination irregularities. The MVA MLAs accused the administration of negligence, stating that the breakdown in security surrounding the test papers has undermined the credibility of the entire selection process.
The opposition alliance also highlighted the widespread impact of the incident on candidates. The MLAs alleged that the alleged TET paper leak has adversely affected the interests of aspiring teachers across the state of Maharashtra, many of whom have spent months preparing for the eligibility test.
By calling for the Education Minister's resignation, the MVA aimed to hold the leadership directly accountable for the lapses. The demonstration on Monday morning brought the issue of exam security to the forefront of the state's political discourse. As the MVA MLAs gathered on the steps of the legislative building in Mumbai, they carried their demands directly to the seat of government power.
The opposition alliance has made it clear that they hold the state government responsible for the systemic failures that allowed the leak to occur. By focusing their demands on the Education Minister, the MVA is seeking a high-level accountability measure to address the grievances of the affected candidates.
