Please note, you are the ones that will be held accountable when the time comes.&#8221;<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"7\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"9\"\/>The remarks came after DU issued a safety advisory urging students and faculty to avoid &#8220;unlawful assemblies or demonstrations&#8221; at Jantar Mantar amid ongoing protests over the alleged NEET-UG paper leak.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>In its advisory, the university said demonstrations at Jantar Mantar are &#8220;strictly regulated&#8221; under Supreme Court directives and warned that participation in unlawful gatherings could invite legal action. It also cautioned that such activities could pose risks to students&#8217; personal safety and adversely affect their academic progress and future professional opportunities.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>&#8220;Accordingly, all students are urged to stay away from Jantar Mantar and to prioritise their safety and compliance with the law,&#8221; the advisory said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/>DU also warned students against misinformation, saying that &#8220;a significant amount of fake and misleading content is being created and circulated to fuel the situation&#8221; and advised them to exercise caution before believing or sharing such material.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/>Gandhi&#8217;s criticism came a day after he, along with other INDIA bloc leaders, attempted to march to Gandhi Smriti in solidarity with students protesting against the alleged NEET-UG paper leak. <!-- -->The Opposition said the visit was also meant to pay tribute to students who allegedly died by suicide following the controversy and to express support for those injured during the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP)-led protests.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/>Addressing reporters on Thursday, Rahul accused the Centre of &#8220;brutalising students&#8221; and demanded the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"27\"\/>The protest saw tense scenes after Congress workers attempted to move past police barricades, leading to scuffles with Delhi Police personnel.
