Should Dharmendra Pradhan have resigned - or been sacked? In this explosive exchange, Anand Ranganathan argues that the NEET controversy is not just about morality but accountability.

Anand Ranganathan invokes Dr. Ambedkar's 1949 "grammar of anarchy" speech to argue that resignation demands in the NEET protests expose deep hypocrisy across party lines. He points out that the same digital answer-sheet company blacklisted amid controversy was reportedly rehired twice by the Karnataka government — without triggering the same outrage.

Reposting this video: Nepo kid Dharmendra Pradhan ji should be sacked for the NEET paper leak! He is so incompetent that he Presided over the Education ministry even in 2024 when the NEET exam papers were leaked & btw none of the top bosses from NTA or National Testing Agency were acted against then. In my opinion the NTA should be renamed as NO TRUST AGENCY! But just Imagine nepo child Dharmendra Pradhan ji still continues to thrive as Education Minister while 22.79 lakh students face hardships after running the career of millions of students in 2024!!

▪️NTA has issued new date for NEET-UG Exam. The re-exam will be held on June 21. The exam took place on 3rd May and on 7th May, NTA received a complaint that the guess paper had some questions that were present in the Question sheets this time. ▪️The Higher Education Department initiated an immediate inquiry and the matter was then handed over to the concerned agencies of the Government of India. They contacted the state agencies and by May 12th, we were confirmed that under the guise of a guess paper, the actual examination questions had indeed been leaked. ▪️We did not want any deserving student to be deprived of their rights because of the conspiracy of education mafias or because an undeserving candidate benefited through unfair means. ▪️After the irregularities that surfaced last time, the Radhakrishnan Committee had been constituted, and we implemented its recommendations. Despite that, this incident occurred. Hence, our first decision was to cancel the examination. -Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan (Dharmendra Pradhan) National Testing Agency Ministry of Education #NEETExam

Anand Ranganathan has taken on Rahul Gandhi’s Manusmriti argument. He accepts that the passage describing women’s dependence on father, husband and sons is patriarchal. But he says Rahul Gandhi is using one verse as a political weapon while ignoring the wider Hindu tradition. Ranganathan argues that Manusmriti is an ancient collection, a Smriti and not the Vedas. He says critics are “cherry-picking” a harsh passage while overlooking verses and traditions that honour women. He also insists that patriarchy and misogyny must be condemned wherever they appear. The debate is not about denying the verse. It is about whether one text, one passage or one interpretation can define Hindu thought. This report separates the verse, the history and Ranganathan’s political argument, while asking whether the same standard is applied to every religious tradition in India.

Watch & listen this very very carefully. The spokesperson of CJP, Dahiya, is totally exposed by Anand Ranganathan .. completely stripped naked in front of everyone. The CJP guy doesn’t even know the name of the chairman of the committee constituted to look into NEET reforms. He has NO answer as to why no demand was made for resignation of Punjab and Karnataka Education ministers who are exactly in the same boat as Pradhan when the leaders of those parties visited Jantar Mantar. The crux of the matter is the whole CJP movement was created as a subsidiary arm of AAP relying only on mob mobilisation, hooliganism, bad mouthing the PM & gundagardi to create chaos in the heart of the capital of India. The key point is if they were upset about CJI’s remarks, then why they didn’t protest in front of the supreme court? And they want country’s policies to be decided by them…. Think… Think… Think… 🤔 Jai Hind 🙏🇮🇳 #CJP #cjp_ही_aap_है #NEET

Anand Ranganathan schools Leftist Journo student on Varna, Ambedkar & Mahatma Gandhi's criticism In a heated exchange, a journalism student questioned Dr. Anand Ranganathan on his criticism of Mahatma Gandhi, accusing him of selectively highlighting Gandhi's flaws while ignoring Ambedkar's praises for Gandhi and not applying the same scrutiny to other leaders like Subhas Chandra Bose. Ranganathan first corrected the student on her misconception about the Varna system, pointing out that it is unrelated to untouchability, and insisted she admit her error, which she eventually did. He then firmly rejected the charge of selective criticism, stating his consistent approach: praising good actions and condemning bad ones without shades of grey. To illustrate, he provocatively asked if she would praise Hitler for his watercolor paintings or economic reforms qualities unrelated to his atrocities. Ranganathan maintained that he applies this objective standard to all leaders he discusses (including Gandhi, Nehru, and others), criticizes wrongs when aware of them, and cannot be expected to address every statement from every figure. He emphasized that he is not offended by differing views but stands by bringing out uncomfortable truths about Gandhi and Nehru. Credit : Clear Cut Talks.

We could see two contrasting videos today where one educates and the other misguides. Hon'ble Minister Udhay as a responsible leader of a people centric movement speaks with historical clarity and political integrity. He explains why NEET is not just flawed but fraudulent. He recalls how in early days of medical education Sanskrit was mandatory to even apply for medical education. This was not about merit but about exclusion. He also explains that it was the Justice party, the ideological foundation of today's DMK that abolished such discriminatory practice. He highlights the case of Miss Nila Bharathi, a student from Tamil Nadu who couldn't secure a medical seat via NEET but later went on to top the State in the UPSC examination - the most competitive examination of the nation. He rightly points out that NEET isn't about intelligence, and implies that it's only about expensive coaching and repeated drilling. On the other hand, actor turned politcal actor, TVK Vijay takes a completely different route. Instead of standing up for the students of Tamil Nadu, for the health infrastructure of Tamil Nadu, educating them about the marketocracy of neet, he tells students "NEET is not the only exam" through which he implies that medicine is not the only field to aspire to. This is exactly what RSS BJP ecosystem has been repeating since NEET was imposed. Its a cop out, not a solution. By diverting attention, normalising NEET,and refusing to take a political stand vijay has shown a disturbing alignment with the BJP RSS narrative which seems to be deliberate and due to lack of political knowledge. The choice is clear, One speaks the truth and fights for rights. The other surrenders to the Union and sugarcoats injustice. Dravidian movement is about educating the people. Not misguiding.

This was one of the most wonderful debates I have ever watched. It was hosted by Sanya Talwar Ji (Sanya Talwar) so beautifully and in such a balanced manner. However, I would like to quote one part of the debate. With due respect to Sr. Adv. Mr. Gopal Sankaranarayanan, his statement that “Judges don’t appoint Judges,” followed by his reference to Mr. Anand Ranganathan (Anand Ranganathan) and the remark, “Let’s not fool ourselves anymore,” was, in my humble view, in rather poor taste. Mr. Gopal stated that the Collegium of the Supreme Court forwards a certain number of names, say, a list of 7, to the Union Government, which then selects 4 and appoints them. He questioned why the Supreme Court does not ask what happened to the remaining 3 and suggested that the Cabinet Secretary should be called upon to explain the same before the Court. However, if that is the question being asked of the Union Government, then a corresponding question also arises, when the Supreme Court Collegium selects those seven names, who questions the Collegium as to why those particular seven names were chosen? What happened to the many other deserving candidates who may have been considered but were not recommended? The question, therefore, should be examined from both sides, with the same degree of transparency and accountability. Sai Deepak J
