Ranchi, Jharkhand: As job aspirants and students celebrated following the Jharkhand government's concession on most of their demands, student leader Devendra Kumar Mahto opted to end his 16-day hunger strike, leaving the agitation to continue. The Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission-Combined Graduate Level (JSSC-CGL) exams and all recruitment processes conducted through the outsourcing agency, TDPL (TSR Data Processing Private Limited), have been cancelled by Chief Minister Hemant Soren following a cabinet meeting on Monday.
Mahto announced the impending launch of the second phase of protests, demanding a CBI investigation into alleged leak irregularities in recruitment exams. He vowed the protest would persist until the government guarantees corruption-free recruitment in the JPSC and JSSC examinations.
