'Jharkhand to set example on exam reform'
Ranchi witnessed Jharkhand's state government canceling crucial examinations and marking a significant shift in examination reforms. Following student demands, Chief Minister Hemant Soren announced the cancellation of activities linked to TSR Data Processing Private Limited (TDPL) and the Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission - Combined Graduate Level (JSSC-CGL) exams.
The government also decided to publish no results and accept no selected candidates. State Minister Dipika Pandey assured students that the reforms would set a nationwide example and ensure strict action against those involved in paper leaks. Student leaders Umme Habiba, Rahul Kranti, and Devendra Nath Mahato had ended their hunger strikes after the government accepted their demands, although a CBI investigation into alleged irregularities remained pending.
