The JPSC-JSSC Reforms Manch is demanding greater transparency in recruitment examinations, cancellation of several tests and an independent probe into alleged irregularities.

Former Jharkhand chief minister Raghubar Das has threatened to go on a hunger strike if the demand for a CBI probe is not fulfilled within a week.

The ABVP has announced demonstrations at more than 1,200 universities over the alleged irregularities in Jharkhand recruitment examinations.

Raghubar Das has also demanded Rs 1 crore compensation for the families of each of the 19 people who died during the 2024 excise constable physical examination.

ABVP leaders have questioned the credibility of the state-appointed SIT investigating the alleged irregularities, citing repeated changes in its composition.
