Students issue ultimatum to Jharkhand government, threaten further action

Key demands include a CBI‑led inquiry into the alleged malpractice surrounding the JPSC‑JSSC exams, cancellation of the JSSC‑CGL test, and a comprehensive overhaul of the JSSC‑JPSC recruitment process. Student activist Devendra Nath Mahto has been on hunger strike for several days to highlight these points. While the Soren administration has agreed to scrap the 14th JPSC combined preliminary exam held on April 19, many of the other demands remain unmet, keeping the protest movement alive.
