Students in Jharkhand staged a protest accusing the government of playing a double game, with a student leader urging all protestors to stay united.
Students from several colleges across Jharkhand gathered in recent days to protest against what they describe as the government’s double‑handed approach to education policy. The demonstrators claim that promises made by the state to improve infrastructure and funding have not been fulfilled, leading to widespread frustration.
A student leader speaking on behalf of the protestors said the government was playing a double game, offering assurances in public while failing to act on them behind closed doors. He urged all participants to remain united in their demands, warning that fragmentation could weaken their collective voice.
The protest was organized peacefully, with police maintaining a presence to ensure order. Organizers called for a dialogue with state officials, demanding transparent action plans and accountability.
The demonstration is expected to continue for several days, with students hoping to bring attention to their grievances and secure concrete commitments from the government.
