New Delhi: Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Sunday slammed Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan after MP Debashish Samantaray switched to Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), quitting Biju Janata Dal (BJD) and said that while the Education Ministry is facing flak and lakhs of students are having exam-related troubles, the Minister "is busy in jod-tod ki rajniti".
He also criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alleging that he preferred "power over performance."
