Amit Shah Meets Dharmendra Pradhan Amid Parliament Protest Union Home Minister Amit Shah held a meeting with Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Monday as political tensions escalated during the CJP-led “Chalo Parliament” protest in the national capital.
The high-level meeting came amid growing pressure over the alleged examination paper leak issue, with protesters demanding accountability, compensation for affected students, and the resignation of the Education Minister. While the government has not officially disclosed the agenda of the meeting, it is widely seen as part of the Centre’s response to the ongoing developments surrounding the protests and the education-related controversy. The discussions took place as security was tightened around Parliament, with police removing protesters from key locations, including Jantar Mantar, to maintain law and order during the Monsoon Session. Government sources have yet to issue an official statement on the outcome of the Shah–Pradhan meeting.
