“You Failed Shibu Soren's Dream”: Jharkhand Students Intensify Protest Against Hemant Govt

The Jharkhand students' protest has intensified as demonstrators continue their agitation despite the government's offer for talks. Protesters say they will not withdraw until concrete action is taken on their demands over alleged recruitment irregularities. Speaking to India Today, one protester accused Chief Minister Hemant Soren of failing to fulfil the vision of late JMM founder Shibu Soren, while another alleged that deserving candidates were denied appointments despite qualifying examinations. Protesters also questioned the Congress leadership's silence, contrasting it with its response to other student protests. India Today's Preeti Choudhary reports from the protest site in Ranchi.
