BJP MLA Maithili Thakur Backs Dharmendra Pradhan After Resignation

Reacting to the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, BJP MLA Maithili Thakur defended the former minister and said the controversy had been presented on social media in a manner that did not fully reflect reality.

Speaking on the issue, Thakur claimed that several aspects of the controversy remained confined to social media and were given a different narrative. She said attempts were made to portray the situation differently from what it actually was.

Expressing the Bharatiya Janata Party's support for Dharmendra Pradhan, Thakur said the party stands firmly behind him. She added that Pradhan took a significant decision by stepping down while respecting the sentiments of students amid the ongoing controversy.

Thakur also remarked that the protests were not limited to students alone, suggesting that the movement had drawn participation from a broader section of society.

Her comments come amid continued political debate over the NEET controversy, with leaders from both the ruling party and the opposition expressing differing views on the protests, accountability, and the future of examination reforms.
