The draft Bill, as announced by the Prime Minister in the Instagram video shared by him in the intervening night of Thursday (July 23) and Friday (July 24), was approved by the Union Cabinet on Friday.

"Thank you, friends. I got the opportunity to talk to you at midnight. The way you have responded to my video, positive suggestions given by you, thanks to everybody. Your love will continue to flow; our relations will continue with more bonding. Thank you, thank you friends," he said in the fresh video message released through his Instagram handle.

Mr. Modi's outreach to the youth came four days after thousands of students led by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) took part in the 'Sansad Chalo' march to press for their demand for the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over examination-related irregularities.
