Naveen Patnaik Demands Dharmendra Pradhan's Resignation Over Student Violence

Naveen Patnaik, the leader of the Biju Janata Dal (BJD), has asked for the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.

This is because there was violence against students who were protesting in Delhi.

Many students were hurt, and the protests have spread to other cities and even outside Indian embassies around the world.

Patnaik and other BJD members visited the injured students in the hospital and promised to help them.

They also said they would keep talking about this issue in Parliament.

Other political parties have also asked for Pradhan to resign, but the BJP has not said anything about it yet.
