As Pradhan resigns, Ranvir Shorey calls it 'master stroke' by govt

While several celebrities welcomed Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation on July 25, actors Ranvir Shorey and Tara Deshpande stood out for having an opinion different from the popular one. As many public figures praised the student movement led by the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP), Sonam Wangchuk and protesters across the country, the two actors questioned the circumstances surrounding Pradhan’s exit.Reacting on X (formerly Twitter), Ranvir shared a GIF shortly after the resignation became public and criticised the government's handling of the situation. “And in one swift move the Modi govt has managed to win over none of its enemies, and disenchant a lot of its supporters. #masterstroke,” he wrote, with clapping emojis.After one X user asked whether he believed Pradhan should not have resigned over the NEET paper leak controversy, Ranvir elaborated on his position.
