Despite this, he still holds the post of minister, it shows the current situation in Bengal. Pradhan said, ‘It is a very unfortunate incident that the state’s education system is in bad shape. It is a very serious matter to get 21 crore cash from the education minister’s house. He further said, ‘The situation in Bengal, which inspired India in the field of education, is such that on the objection of the youth, the High Court had to order a CBI inquiry into the then Education Minister.’
