"Pralhad Joshi is currently the interim Education Minister. At best, he might make a good Coal Minister. I believe this is a temporary arrangement, and the government is actively searching for a permanent Education Minister," he said.Raut claimed that Fadnavis, because of his educational background and ideological alignment with the RSS, could emerge as the Centre's preferred choice.
