Editorial backs student protests after Pradhan resignation
The Hindu··26 Jul

It frames campus and street mobilisation as a political force rather than a fringe reaction to exam irregularities alone. The piece links ministerial exit to sustained student agency, suggesting institutional accountability followed visible public dissent across cities this month.
