Pradhan made his resignation public by posting the resignation letter on social media platform X, just an hour before the scheduled 3:30 p.m. meeting between government representatives and CJP leaders.
Pradhan attached a two page letter in his post in which he said, "I hold deep respect for the aspirations, sentiments, and rightful expectations of the youth of this country. Realising the dreams of India's young generation has been the moral resolve of our political and social life. I express my gratitude to Hon'ble Prime Minister for the opportunity given to me to serve the nation under his visionary leadership."
