Dharmendra Pradhan First Union Minister To Quit Because Of A Row Since MJ Akbar In 2018

Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation is a rare one. So rare, in fact, that to find a parallel, one has to rewind the clock all the way to 2018, when MJ Akbar stepped down from his post as Union Minister of State for External Affairs. Pradhan resigned on Saturday, marking a major victory for the Cockroach Janta Party-led protests against paper leaks, with Jantar Mantar in Delhi as its epicentre.
Despite the government assuring that it would accede to the protesters' other demands - including compensation to the families of students who died by suicide after the NEET paper leak and no legal action against those who took part in the march to Parliament earlier this week - the agitators refused to budge on the education minister's resignation.
