Mizoram Congress Protests Demand Pradhan's Resignation

In Mizoram, Congress leaders and workers protested near Lok Bhavan to demand the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.

They handed over a memorandum to the Governor, addressed to PM Modi, expressing solidarity with Rahul Gandhi.

The protest was against the detention of Gandhi and other senior leaders in Delhi for their sit-in outside PM Modi's residence.

The Congress party blamed the government for failing to protect students' rights and demanded a discussion in Parliament on examination irregularities.

They also demanded the withdrawal of all FIRs filed against students during a protest in Delhi.

Police forcibly removed and detained the leaders, and there were clashes between protesters and police, resulting in injuries and detentions.
