Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday Welcomed Dharmendra Pradhan’s decision to resign from his post as Union Education Minister, describing it as an act of placing national interest above personal ambition.

In a post on X, Amit Shah said: “For Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) workers, the nation, our youth, and students hold far greater importance than any position. Today, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan ji’s resignation from his post is a reflection of this very principle.”

Shah emphasised that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government respects the sentiments of the country’s youth and is committed to reforms against examination paper leaks.

He praised the decisions taken by PM Modi to ensure strict punishment for those responsible, expressing confidence that these measures would deliver justice to students who cleared the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET).
