On May 28, 2026, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan issued a clarification regarding claims of discrepancies in CBSE exam results, while also taking a swipe at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. Pradhan alleged that Gandhi appeared frustrated due to continuous political setbacks.
The clarification came after reports surfaced questioning the accuracy of CBSE exam outcomes. Pradhan emphasized that the examination process is transparent and any discrepancies are being addressed through established protocols.
In his remarks, Pradhan criticized Gandhi for making unsubstantiated claims about the exams, suggesting that the Congress leader's comments stem from personal frustration rather than factual evidence. The minister urged all parties to avoid politicizing educational matters.
As of now, no official statement from Rahul Gandhi or the Congress party has been released in response to Pradhan's comments. The CBSE has not issued any additional details regarding the specific discrepancy claims.
