    “"Pradhan lost his chair. The Uttar Pradesh government allocated a budget of thousands of crores to repair schools. The Rajasthan govt also allocated a budget to repair schools after the Ashutosh (Ranka) issue. The Maharashtra government has started working on Ashram and government schools, but it is not that effective yet," he claimed.”

    What they said

    thousands of crores

    Abhijeet Dipke claimed that after student agitation forced Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan to resign, the Uttar Pradesh government allocated a budget of thousands of crores to repair schools, Rajasthan also allocated a school-repair budget after the Ashutosh Ranka issue, and Maharashtra's work on ashram and government schools is not yet effective.

    What is actually true

    A Rajya Sabha answer of 26 March 2025 lists central Samagra Shiksha releases to Uttar Pradesh of ₹4,571.85 crore, ₹2,044.97 crore, ₹3,819.75 crore, ₹4,276.45 crore and ₹4,487.40 crore across 2020-21 to 2024-25, and describes Operation Kayakalp, but records no state budget of thousands of crores for school repairs [2]. India Today reported on 25 August 2026 that the Uttar Pradesh government approved ₹604 crore to rebuild and repair 3,126 council schools [1]. Rajasthan's ₹503 crore fund was sanctioned after a roof collapse at a government school in Piplodi, Jhalawar killed seven children [7][8].

    • Rajasthan's ₹503 crore school repair fund was sanctioned after a roof collapse at a government school in Piplodi, Jhalawar killed seven children, not after an 'Ashutosh Ranka issue' [7][8]. [7][8]
    • No source in the record shows Dharmendra Pradhan resigned or lost his chair; a 2023 PIB release refers to him as Union Education Minister [4]. [4]

    The claim is false on its load-bearing specifics. The Uttar Pradesh figure is ₹604 crore, not thousands of crores, and the Rajasthan fund followed the Piplodi roof collapse, not an Ashutosh Ranka issue. No source shows Pradhan resigned, and the record contains no evidence on Maharashtra's effectiveness.
