India has found its new Union Minister of Education, Pralhad Joshi, after a nationwide protest by students. He was appointed to the role by the President of India, Droupadi Murmu, on July 25, 2026. Pralhad took over the charge following the high-profile resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan. The 63-year-old took office amid chaos; however, with experience as a five-time Member of Parliament (MP), he is expected to handle the situation sensibly.
As Pralhad Joshi’s term as the new Education Minister officially begins, his personal life has come under the spotlight. Here’s everything we know about the BJP leader’s family, including his biggest support system, his wife, Jyoti Joshi and their children.
