Rahul Gandhi backs Jharkhand protest over job exam row: 'Every Govt must listen to students'
Every government, be it the Central government, Jharkhand government or a Congress government, should listen to what students are saying and take action to change the education system, said Rahul Gandhi.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has voiced support for students protesting against alleged irregularities in recruitment exams in Jharkhand. Gandhi, who is the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, stated that every government, including the Central and Jharkhand governments, must listen to student concerns and take action to reform the education system. During an Instagram 'Ask Me Anything' session, Gandhi reiterated his stance that the country's education system is collapsed, unaffordable, and oppressive.
Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge also expressed solidarity with the students' cause, regardless of whether the party is in power or not. The Congress party, which is part of the JMM-led government in Jharkhand, has vowed to continue fighting for the students' demands and help them secure justice. AICC in-charge of Jharkhand, K Raju, informed that a ministerial committee has been constituted to consult with protesting students and propose concrete solutions.
The committee's efforts aim to address the students' grievances and ensure a permanent resolution to their concerns.
