In Jharkhand, student protests against alleged examination irregularities and paper leaks in Public Service Commission and Staff Selection Commission recruitments have entered their eleventh day. Demonstrators at Ranchi's Jaipal Singh Munda Stadium are demanding a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe, expressing a complete lack of trust in the state CID investigation.
Student leader Devendra Nath Mahato remains on an indefinite hunger strike alongside other protesting students. With public support growing and supplies pouring in, protesters have announced an Assembly gherao for August 10 during the monsoon session. While the state government claims it is awaiting investigation conclusions, opposition BJP leaders have questioned the delay in handing over the probe to the CBI.
