JSSC CGL Exam Cancelled After 25-Day Jharkhand Student Protest

Ranchi: After 25 days of protests by students in Jharkhand over alleged irregularities in recruitment examinations, the state government has taken a major decision. Chief Minister Hemant Soren has announced the cancellation of the JSSC CGL examination along with other examinations conducted through TDPL, the agency at the centre of the controversy.

The decision has brought relief and celebrations among protesting students in Ranchi. The cancellation of the JSSC CGL examination was one of the key demands of the students, who had been protesting for nearly three and a half weeks.

CBI Probe Demand Still Pending

While the government has accepted the demand to cancel the examinations, the students' demand for a CBI investigation into the alleged irregularities has not yet been accepted.

Instead, the state government has ordered a CID probe into the matter. An inquiry panel headed by a retired judge will look into the allegations and examine the circumstances surrounding the conduct of the examinations.

The decision means that while the students have achieved one of their major demands, the issue of an independent CBI investigation remains unresolved.

Devendra Mahato Ends Hunger Strike

Student leader Devendra Mahato, who had been on a hunger strike in support of the demands, has announced that he will end his fast following the government's decision.

Mahato's hunger strike had continued alongside the wider student protest. Following the announcement of the examination cancellations, he celebrated the development with the national flag and described the decision as a major victory for the protesting students.

25 Days of Protest Leads to Government Action

The student movement in Ranchi had continued for 25 days, with protesters demanding the cancellation of examinations allegedly affected by irregularities and greater transparency in the recruitment process.

The cancellation of the JSSC CGL examination and other TDPL-conducted examinations marks a significant development in the ongoing dispute. However, with the demand for a CBI probe still pending, the government's CID investigation and the findings of the inquiry panel will now remain under close scrutiny.

For the protesting students, the cancellation of the examinations is being seen as a major achievement after weeks of demonstrations and hunger strikes in Ranchi.
