Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi has demanded the removal of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan after meeting a group of protesting students at his residence in New Delhi.
Rahul Gandhi said the students’ three demands were “non-negotiable” and declared that Pradhan “has to be sacked.
Rahul Gandhi Extends Support to Students
Following the meeting, the Congress leader publicly expressed support for the protesters and reiterated their demand for action against the education minister.
He said the students would not accept anything less than Pradhan’s removal from the Union Cabinet.
Rejects Possible Ministry Change
Rahul Gandhi also claimed that there were discussions within the government about shifting Dharmendra Pradhan to another ministry.
However, he said such a transfer would not satisfy the protesting students and insisted that the minister must be removed instead.
Protesters Gather at Jantar Mantar
The statement came amid continuing student-led protests in Delhi, including demonstrations connected with AISA and CJP at Jantar Mantar.
The protesters have been raising concerns over education-related issues and demanding accountability from the Union government.
Political Pressure Intensifies
Rahul Gandhi’s intervention has increased political pressure on the Centre as opposition leaders continue to question the government’s handling of students’ concerns.
The Union government had not publicly responded to Gandhi’s demand in the cited report.
