Dharmendra Pradhan Resigns | Who Is India's New Interim Education Minister, Pralhad Joshi?

Union Minister Pralhad Joshi has been given additional charge of the Ministry of Education after Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation amid the NEET paper leak controversy. A senior BJP leader and five-time MP from Dharwad, Joshi has previously handled key portfolios including Parliamentary Affairs, Coal and Mines. As he takes charge of one of the government's most closely watched ministries, Joshi's immediate challenge will be restoring confidence in India's examination system, implementing reforms, and addressing growing concerns over transparency and accountability in competitive exams.
