'Thank your government': Telegram trolls Centre over NEET-linked ban, fires back with cheeky responses

Telegram's official X account has responded sarcastically to the Indian government's temporary restriction imposed ahead of the NEET-UG re-examination. The government cited concerns over fake paper leak claims, while Telegram's CEO criticized the ban for punishing millions of ordinary users. Critics argue the restriction inconveniences students and doesn't address the root cause of leaks.
