BJP MP's Daughter Supports Student Protests Amid Dharmendra Pradhan's Resignation
Following Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation amid NEET exam protests, Archita Sachin Rahar, daughter of BJP MP Aparajita Sarangi, posted on Instagram expressing support for the students, contrasting her family's stance. Despite alleged requests from Pradhan's team to remove the post, she refused and later her Instagram account became unavailable. While BJP leaders, including Sarangi, praised Pradhan's moral responsibility, some party members criticized Rahar's public dissent. The incident sparked widespread social media discussion about political family dynamics and freedom of expression.
