Congress leader Rahul Gandhi hailed Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation as Education Minister as a “huge step” towards reforming India's education system, congratulating students who protested over the NEET-UG paper leak and examination irregularities. Calling it a victory for democracy and the Constitution, Gandhi praised young protesters for demanding accountability and said the country was proud of them. He reiterated his demand for Prime Minister Narendra Modi to apologise and sought action against those responsible for violence against students during the July 20 protests. Gandhi also urged farmers, labourers and the poor to continue constitutional struggles for dignity. Pradhan resigned, accepting responsibility and saying he stepped down to prevent confusion.
