What has Jharkhand govt promised protesting students? Key demands addressed, CBI probe remains sticking point
Jharkhand govt has agreed to cancel the 14th JPSC exam, probe irregularities and set up fast-track courts and an expert panel. Students, however, remain firm on their demand for a CBI probe into JSSC-CGL.
The Jharkhand government has made several concessions to protesting students, addressing many of their key demands. They have agreed to cancel the 14th JPSC examination, tackle irregularities in backlog recruitments, and propose measures for examination reforms. However, the government has not agreed to conduct a CBI probe into the JSSC-CGL examination, citing the court-supervised nature of that particular exam.
The students have rejected the government's offer and plan to continue their agitation, with a proposed march to the Jharkhand assembly on August 10 if their demand for a CBI probe remains unmet.
