BJP forced into six-point reset after Pradhan resignation
The resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on July 25 has triggered a six-point course correction within the BJP. The reset spans Parliament, the Modi cabinet, bureaucracy, party machinery, and its digital narrative. The decision comes after weeks of failed attempts to downplay protests at Jantar Mantar, which drew thousands of young demonstrators. The BJP’s initial assessment that the agitation would fizzle out proved incorrect, forcing a reevaluation of its strategy. The internal review includes measures to restore trust in government recruitment processes and address systemic failures in exam administration.
