The resignation of the Education Minister is an acknowledgment that accountability in a democracy cannot be indefinitely evaded. It comes after weeks of determined, peaceful voices raised by students, parents and citizens across the country who refused to be ignored.
It also comes after far too many young Indians faced unnecessary police brutality and force for exercising their democratic right to peaceful protest. That should concern every citizen, regardless of political affiliation.
But accountability does not end with a resignation. The deeper failures that brought us here must now be addressed through transparent reforms, institutional responsibility and a commitment to ensuring that no young Indian’s future is jeopardised again.
The students who marched, spoke out and peacefully persisted deserve to know that this is the beginning of reform, not the end of the story.

The documentary still is age-restricted.
There was no reason given why it is.
Conveniently blocking and releasing a different video which isn't even in question is manipulation.
The 20th July Documentary is still AGE RESTRICTED
In 1997, this man was the ABVP National Secretary and was just about to join the Bharatiya Janata Party. There was a paper leak in Odisha and there was a major protest. This man participated in them. He was beaten by the police.
"We staged a protest against the Odisha government, in front of the secretariat. Around 1,500 students joined us there. While the protest was peaceful, the police charged against the activists. He was badly beaten up at that time. He had a few fractures too."
Who is he? Mr Dharmendra Pradhan. Imagine that Dharmendra Pradhan was protesting against paper leaks in 1997 and was beaten!
There is an amazing Indian Express article about him. Linked below. The irony? One of the interviewees says:
"under Pradhan's regime, the students will have more scope for dissent. "It is natural for students to be anti-establishment."
🚨#JustIn: DIPKE HAS BEEN PICKED UP BY THE POLICE!
WE REQUEST ALL MPs TO IMMEDIATELY STAND IN SUPPORT OF THE STUDENTS ON THE STREETS!
THE POLICE IS BRUTALLY CRACKING DOWN AND BEATING UP PEACEFUL PROTESTERS.
Some ideas of Karl Marx that show his high IQ brain:
- Salary is not what you earn, it’s what you are allowed to keep
- In capitalism exploitation isn’t illegal, it’s essential
- In capitalism, human is invisible, only product is visible
- Human becomes important when human becomes a product
- In today’s world, subject-object relationship has inverted, objects have become subject masters
(writing this holding my phone which completely seems to have gained control over me 😐)
He’s just too revolutionary for even today’s time to be put into practice
₹40,000 crore education budget…
But this is the reality on the ground.
We visited a government hostel in Bengal and what we saw wasn’t normal.
