Vinesh Phogat praises youth after Pradhan's resignation: 'Democracy won, fear lost' · rediff.com

Vinesh Phogat, a famous Indian wrestler, praised the young people of India after the Education Minister, Dharmendra Pradhan, resigned.

This happened because of a big controversy over a leaked exam paper for NEET-UG 2026.

Many young people protested for weeks, and one person even went on a hunger strike for 26 days.

The protests were led by a group called the Cockroach Janata Party.

They wanted the government to be responsible for the exam leak.

The protests were peaceful, but the police used force to stop a big march to the Parliament.

Vinesh said that the young people showed great courage and that their protests made democracy stronger.

She said that the young people are the future of India and that their actions proved that fear did not win.

Veteran Indian wrestler and Olympian

“Yuva sirf bheed nahi hote, woh bhavishya ki disha tay karne wali shakti hote hain. Sadkon par khade un bachchon ne humein sahas ka asli arth samjhaya. Haathon mein phool, dilon mein Samvidhan par vishwas tha. Jinhe daraane ki koshish ki gayi, wahi sabse oonchi awaaz bankar ubhre.”
