Bengaluru: Karnataka Home Minister Priyank Kharge on Sunday claimed that Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation was "forced" and said it did not resolve the underlying issues.
"As I said, the resignation was not one of conscience or responsibility. It was forced because it was denting the image of the government, hurting Narendra Modi's popularity, and the Gen Z and students were not ready to relent," Kharge said.
