Bihar: Water cannon used as RJD leaders march to Raj Bhavan; Tejashwi Yadav detained

In Bihar, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leaders and workers organized a foot march towards Raj Bhavan on Wednesday, highlighting concerns about paper leaks, unemployment, and issues impacting students and youth. RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav and RJD MP Misa Bharti were apprehended during the demonstration. The government's use of AK-47 rifles has sparked anger among students, who vow to discard this weapon and demand action for their future.

The opposition claims that paper leaks are damaging the examination system and contributing to high levels of unemployment. Police deployed water cannons to disperse the RJD supporters during their march to Lok Bhavan in Patna.

Bhai Virendra, an RJD MLA, accused the government of using AK-47 rifles against protesting students over the paper leak issue, stating that the party's foot march would persist until appropriate measures are taken. Similarly, RJD MP Manoj Jha expressed the anger of students and youth in Bihar, emphasizing that the collapse of the examination system and unemployment are pressing concerns.

The march was a response to Tejashwi Yadav's call for a protest, criticizing the state's examination system and law and order situation. The demonstrations have been met with clashes between student protesters and police personnel, particularly in Siwan during disputes over examination irregularities and the NEET paper leak controversy.
