‘No reshuffle, sack Pradhan’: Rahul Gandhi backs protesting students
Rahul Gandhi demanded the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan during a media briefing with All India Students’ Association leaders, citing unacceptable speculation about his potential reassignment within the Cabinet. He supported the students' non-negotiable demands, which include Pradhan's removal due to alleged corruption and incompetence, particularly in light of the NEET-UG exam paper leak. Gandhi's remarks come after a 23-day hunger strike by students advocating for accountability in the education sector.
