Jharkhand paper leak protest: CJP extends support to students — What are the allegations and protesters' demands?
Hundreds of students continued their protest for the fifth consecutive day in Ranchi on Sunday over alleged irregularities in the 14th JPSC examination, JSSC-CGL and other recruitment tests.
The Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) faced allegations of irregularities in a recent examination, leading to protests by students. The Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), which organized a prior protest at Delhi's Jantar Mantar, extended its support to Jharkhand students. The chief minister, Hemant Soren, ordered a CID investigation but protesters remain unsatisfied.
Demands include a CBI probe into all recruitment exams conducted by the JPSC and JSSC over the past seven years, the resignation of the chief minister on moral grounds, and transparency in the exam process. Protesters also demanded that the government hold discussions with them and listen to their concerns.
