Jharkhand protest LIVE: Student protesters are set to hold their planned 'Vidhan Sabha Gherao' march on Monday, August 10. Meanwhile, BJP leaders were detained by police on Monday while protesting outside Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren's residence over JPSC-JSSC alleged irregularities.
Jharkhand's student leader, Ravindra Paswan, joined a march to the Assembly in an ambulance on Monday due to a nine-day hunger strike over alleged recruitment irregularities in JPSC-JSSC exams. Thousands of job aspirants, affiliated with the JPSC-JSSC Reform Manch, began their Vidhan Sabha Gherao march to the Jharkhand assembly in Ranchi.
BJP leaders were detained outside the Chief Minister's home for the same cause. Student leaders appealed for a peaceful and constitutional protest, while police tightened security measures ahead of the planned demonstration.
