SocietyIndia: Student anger over alleged exam irregularities spreads to Jharkhand

Thousands of young people in India’s Jharkhand state marched toward the legislative assembly, demanding the cancellation of allegedly irregular civil service recruitment exams, a federal investigation and greater transparency. Police used water cannons on Monday as protesters tried to cross security barricades. The government suspended this year’s disputed exam and three commission members resigned, but protesters say their demands remain unmet.
