Dharmendra Pradhan will not resign; Centre promises NTA structural overhaul

New Delhi : Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan will not resign over NEET paper leak controversy, govt sources confirm, calling resignation an 'easy way out'.

Dismissing opposition demands and persistent street agitations by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) for the immediate step-down of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, top government sources confirmed on Friday that no resignation will be offered over the NEET-UG examination paper leak controversy.

According to senior administration officials, the central government believes that stepping down from office does not address the core issue of systemic examination reforms.
