Jharkhand Government Cancels JPSC Exams Amid Student Protests

In a significant development, the Jharkhand government has canceled the 14th JPSC Preliminary Examination and two backlog exams following persistent student protests over alleged irregularities. Chief Minister Hemant Soren announced the decision in the Legislative Assembly, while plans for an investigation into other exams and the formation of a reform committee were also revealed. However, key demands from the students, including the cancellation of the JSSC-CGL exam and a CBI inquiry, remain unresolved. The protests, which began on July 24, have seen students actively demonstrating for transparency and accountability in the recruitment process.
