BJP failed test by not sacking Pradhan: Kharge
Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Tuesday accused the BJP Government of having completely failed the test of accountability by not asking Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan to resign following several exam irregularities.
He also criticised the Government for putting curbs on the Telegram messaging app ahead of the NEET-UG 2026 re-exam on June 21.
“The Modi Government has temporarily blocked Telegram for the NEET exam re-test. Modi ji should first demand the resignation of his Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, who has blocked the futures of millions of youth,” Kharge said in a post on X. “Whether it’s deploying the Indian Air Force, blocking Telegram, or catching small fish to protect the paper leak mafia — this is all something the Modi Government has to do because in the last 10 years, 90 paper leaks have occurred, and 9 crore youth are suffering due to this fraud and corruption. How long will this Government keep covering up its failures?” the Congress chief asked. The Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha claimed that nearly half a dozen young people have been forced to take their own lives due to the exam irregularities.
“Modi ji doesn’t utter a single word. There are countless candidates whose parents took loans to prepare them for recruitment exams over the years.
