Hazare letter to Modi backs Pradhan resignation

Anti-corruption veteran Anna Hazare wrote to Prime Minister Modi urging dialogue over police action during student protests and arguing that broad youth grievances—from NEET paper leaks to unemployment—reflect public distress rather than mere law and order. He also backed calls for Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation as a signal of accountability and governance improvement, stressing that such steps would not weaken the government.
