Dharmendra Pradhan arrives in Parliament, calls himself a 'street fighter'
Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan arrived in Parliament on Wednesday to a warm welcome from colleagues and supporters. Describing himself as a 'street fighter', Pradhan struck a combative tone as he entered the premises, signalling his readiness for political battles ahead.
The minister, who holds the portfolios of Education and Skill Development, was seen greeting fellow parliamentarians and party workers. The rousing welcome reflected his stature within the ruling party and his active role in recent legislative work.
Pradhan's comment about being a 'street fighter' comes amid ongoing political debates in Parliament. He has been a vocal proponent of government policies, particularly in the education sector, and has often engaged in spirited exchanges with opposition members.
Observers note that such assertions of defiance are not uncommon among senior leaders, especially when facing parliamentary challenges. Pradhan's remark highlights his intent to aggressively defend government positions during the current session.
The minister's arrival and statement were covered by multiple news outlets, though reactions from opposition parties were not immediately available.
