Pradhan's resignation highlights ministerial accountability: Karnataka Dy CM

The Union Education Minister, Dharmendra Pradhan, resigned after a controversy involving a leak in the NEET exam question paper.

Karnataka's Deputy Chief Minister, G. Parameshwara, welcomed this resignation, saying it shows that ministers should be responsible for problems in their departments.

He mentioned that students across the country had protested, demanding action against those responsible for the leak.

Parameshwara believes this resignation sets a good example for future governance.

However, BJP leader R. Ashoka criticized the Congress party for having double standards on accountability, saying they demand resignations when in opposition but don't follow the same rules when in power.
