Leader of Opposition (LoP) in Lok Sabha and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, talking to reporters in New Delhi, stated that moving Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan to another Ministry is not acceptable to the protesting students.
Talking to reporters alongside three student protesters, Mr. Gandhi reiterated their three demands amid the ongoing agitation over the NEET paper ‘leak’ issue. One of the three with him was Neha, the national president of the All India Students’ Association (AISA), the students wing of the CPI(ML) Liberation, who broke her fast on July 20.
“The Education Minister who is corrupt, imcompetent and misaligned has to be sacked. There is some talk going on, we get information from the government, in PM Modi’s Cabinet that the solution is to remove Mr. Pradhan from Education and move him to another Ministry. It is not acceptable to anybody… He has to be sacked. Period,” he said.
