After resigning from the post of Union Education Minister, Dharmendra Pradhan was warmly welcomed by BJP and NDA alliance MPs when he reached the Indian Parliament on Monday. At that time, the Parliament premises became filled with slogans of `Dharmendra Pradhan Zindabad`. However, the opposition party Congress has strongly criticized this incident.
Upon reaching the Parliament, Dharmendra Pradhan got out of his car and greeted everyone present with folded hands. Later, BJP and NDA MPs surrounded him. At one point, an MP put a traditional cap on his head and draped a shawl over his shoulders. They expressed joy and excitement in support of this Odisha leader.
