New Delhi .Riya Ahir, who came into limelight as student voice during NEET Protest, could not get entry in Bigg Boss 20. Riya was very excited about going to the show, but she had to face defeat from Love Gill in the public voting. After the decision taken on September 6, Luv Gill got entry into Bigg Boss house, while Rhea returned from the stage.
Riya Ahir came into widespread discussion when she stopped a police van full of students in the middle of the road during the student protest in Mumbai. After this incident, her pictures and videos quickly reached people and Riya got a different identity. After this she appeared in many public discussions and her popularity increased among the youth.
Riya's presence during the NEET related movement suddenly brought her into the limelight. He was seen as a voice standing in support of the students. Due to his activism, he got recognition among the youth and people active on social media. After this increasing popularity, his name was associated with Bigg Boss 20.
However, Riya's entry in Bigg Boss was not decided directly. Along with him, Luv Gill was also kept as a contender on the stage of the show. Public voting was conducted between the two and based on the audience's decision, it was decided to send one of them to Bigg Boss house.
During the decision, conversation and debate was also seen on the stage between Rhea and Luv Gill. Riya put forward her claim with confidence and expressed her desire to go to the show. Despite this, the voting result was not in his favor. Luv Gill got more support and got a chance to enter the house.
This result is also considered important for Riya because she was eliminated from the show even before reaching the Bigg Boss stage. He did not get a chance to go inside the house. His presence on the stage lasted only for a short time and after that he had to return.
After the news of going to Bigg Boss came out, Riya had expressed her excitement about her decision in many conversations. She had told that she wants to move forward through reality shows. Meanwhile, some people on social media had also raised questions about his participation in the NEET protest and later joining Bigg Boss.
Riya had rejected these allegations and termed the questions raised regarding her role in supporting the students as wrong. He said that he did not pretend to raise the voice of the students during the movement.
Now after the public's decision in Bigg Boss 20, the discussion about Riya has once again intensified. The recognition he got from NEET protest brought him to the reality show stage, but public voting could not take him inside the house. On the other hand, Luv Gill has secured his place in Bigg Boss house by gaining lead in voting.
