Salman Khan has publicly shifted his message on the NEET paper leak protest, asking students in New Delhi to return home after Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s assurance of action against those responsible. The actor, who had backed the agitation a day earlier, now says the students’ education and safety must come first.
That change in stance has added a new layer to the celebrity conversation around the protest, especially as several film personalities continue to weigh in while the issue remains firmly in the public spotlight.
Salman Khan’S Fresh Appeal To Students And Sonam Wangchuk
In his latest social media post, Salman wrote, “The students are at top priority, educationally n security-wise, so they need not worry and have their parents worried for them. The Honorable Prime Minister has tweeted, and I am sure that he will take strict action against all those people who are responsible for this leak. So students, plz go back to your parents n homes.”
He also addressed Sonam Wangchuk directly, writing, “Sonam, it’s done, bro. Don’t extend this. Keep the spirit for another day if there be a need, which I doubt, n eat something. If u want, will send u food from home.”
The message came after the protests escalated during the CJP’s Chalo Sansad march, which ended in clashes between demonstrators and Delhi Police. Students have been demanding accountability over the NEET paper leak, while Wangchuk joined the agitation in solidarity and began a hunger strike.
What Salman Khan Said A Day Earlier
A day earlier, Salman had posted in support of the students and described the issue as deeply serious. He wrote, “It was such a peaceful movement, feel so sad that it had to take a violent turn. My heart goes out to the students and their families who were hurt. Paper leak is a very serious issue, and I am glad to know n see that the kids of our country have come together for a better educational system, and their parents supported them.”
He added, “I truly appreciate the stand they have taken, showing dedication, sincerity, and keenness to study hard n make their future and a greater, educated India. This andolan, this protest, is the right way to go abt it, n the students have done this peacefully. So courageous and brave. Driven and motivated towards education, this generation will make India proud.”
Salman had also written, “This issue is between the students and the educational system, it should not be hijacked politically, the credit should only go to the students of our country, and I am sure the government will also give them all the support n make it a stronger educational system. It’s a win-win situation. Hoping n praying for a positive decision. God bless all of you who wanna be educated.”
Why Salman Khan’S Shift In Messaging Matters
Salman’s revised appeal now stands out in a protest moment where celebrity reactions have carried unusual visibility. His first post aligned him squarely with the students’ anger over the paper leak, while the follow-up urged de-escalation after the Prime Minister’s message. That sequence matters because it shows how quickly public figures are responding as the protest develops, and how their words are shaping the tone of support around an issue that has already drawn attention from multiple names in the film industry.
