Through the Reader lens — Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan is facing sustained demands for his resignation over allegations of a NEET-UG paper leak, with protesters invoking his 1997 leadership of student anti-leak demonstrations as a pointed contrast. Street protests in Delhi led by the Cockroach Janta Party and Congress have triggered police action, barricading, metro closures, and multiple FIRs. The party rejected PM Narendra Modi's proposal to address the crisis through fast-track courts, insisting instead on ministerial accountability. The central government is signaling talks with activist Sonam Wangchuk in an attempt to de-escalate, but has not indicated willingness to remove Pradhan. Coverage frames the episode as both an exam-integrity crisis and a political vulnerability for the BJP, given Pradhan's documented history on the opposite side of the issue. The situation remains fluid, with protests ongoing and no resolution to the resignation demand in sight.
