Dharmendra Pradhan has spoken out about his resignation as Education Minister, stating that he sought Prime Minister's approval to accept the demands of protesters. This comes days after he quit his position, sparking speculation about the reasons behind his decision.
Pradhan has been vocal about the influence of Gen Z protests on his resignation, stating that he has been a victim of the younger generation's misled views. He acknowledged the power of Gen Z, calling them a force that cannot be ignored.
The protests in question were centered around various demands, although officials have not yet confirmed the specifics of these demands. Pradhan's decision to seek the PM's approval to accept the protesters' demands suggests that the government was considering giving in to their requests.
Pradhan has also been involved in a war of words with BJD Supremo Naveen Patnaik over the 'Go Back' campaign. The campaign has been a point of contention between the two leaders, with Pradhan hitting back at Patnaik's remarks.
The reaction to Pradhan's resignation has been mixed, with some praising his decision to step down and others criticizing his handling of the protests. The government has not yet announced a replacement for Pradhan as Education Minister.
The government is expected to announce a new Education Minister soon, although officials have not yet confirmed a timeline for the appointment. As the situation continues to unfold, all eyes will be on the government's response to the protests and Pradhan's resignation.
