Danapur (Patna) | March 16, 2025 3:43:15 PM IST
Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Sunday spoke to Khushboo of Danapur, Patna who was not allowed to study science after matric and said that both the central government and the Bihar government will facilitate her studies.

He assured her not to worry and admission will be made in the science stream, so her dream of becoming a doctor will come true.

In a viral video on social media, Khushboo was seen getting emotional while talking about the reason she was not allowed to study science after matric.

"Study diligently. Both Narendra Modi's central government and Nitish Kumar's Bihar government will facilitate your studies in science stream," Pradhan asserted.

Assembly elections in Bihar are due in October this year. The Election Commission of India has not yet announced the dates of the polls.

Last week, Pradhan's remarks in the Lok Sabha on the Tamil Nadu government's stance on the NEP caused an uproar, with the DMK MPs disrupting the proceedings of the house.

The minister's controversial remarks on Tamil Nadu MPs were expunged from the record. The remarks also led DMK cadre taking to the streets across Tamil Nadu, condemning Pradhan.

However, the Minister slammed the DMK government alleging that they had done little to promote Tamil.

"DMK's latest cacophony on language imposition and its stance on NEP's three-language formula exposes their hypocrisy. Opposition to NEP 2020 has nothing to do with preservation of Tamil pride, language and culture but everything to do with gaining political dividends. DMK bats for promotion of Tamil language. But, the truth is that they have done little to promote and preserve Tamil language, literature and literary icons. As per the UDISE+ data, enrolments in Tamil Medium dropped from 65.87 lakh in 2018-19 to 46.83 lakh in 2023-24, a reduction of over 19.05 lakh students in a period of five years," he said in a post on X.
