Veteran actor Shabana Azmi has hailed the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan as a major victory for students protesting against irregularities in NEET exams, but insists the fight is far from over. As celebrations erupted across protest sites and social media, several Bollywood celebrities also backed the students, calling the development a win for democracy and youth-led activism.
Dharmendra Pradhan stepped down on Saturday amid mounting pressure over irregularities in the conduct of competitive examinations, including the NEET paper leak controversy. In his resignation letter, he said he was “disturbed” by the developments of the past 10 days and had submitted his resignation to Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
