Hemant Soren Promises to Consider Demands as Protests Over Jharkhand PSC Exam Leaks Intensify
Protesters distrust the state's investigation into alleged exam paper leaks.
Facing protests since July 29 over alleged Jharkhand PSC exam paper leaks, Hemant Soren promised to consider protesters' demands seriously. Students and job aspirants demand a CBI or an independent panel of retired high court judges probe the leaks. Arrests have been made but protesters accuse the government of attempting to "whitewash" the issue by using the state's CID for the investigation. Talks between the government and protesters are set to begin, with Babulal Marandi backing the protest and Abhijeet Dipke from CJP declaring support.
