CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke congratulated the protesting students after the Jharkhand government accepted their demands on Monday. “Congratulations to all students in Jharkhand and to all those who were leading this fight especially @DevendraNathMa9 bhai. Your fight will inspire many more students across the country! Dipke wrote on X.
On August 8, a CJP delegation reached Ranchi and joined the protest site in support of the students.
CJP had backed the Jharkhand students’ protest earlier this month, with Dipke saying his team would join the movement, which he said was being led by Devendra Nath Mahto . In a significant decision, Soren on Monday announced that the state government has decided to cancel everything associated with TDPL (TSR Data Processing Private Limited), including the examinations conducted, the results published and the candidates selected.
The Chief Minister also assured that the government would ensure complete transparency in examination-related reforms and address the concerns raised by students protesting over alleged irregularities. “I do not consider these young people to be different groups. They are all concerned about their future. The government will move ahead with complete transparency on reforms. There is already an SOP for conducting examinations, and if it had been followed, these irregularities would not have occurred. Nevertheless, further improvements will be made based on suggestions received. The cancellation of JSSC-CGL examinations has been a major demand of protestors.
“A comprehensive inquiry will be conducted into all errors–minor or major–that have occurred since 2014. The Chief Minister said the scope of the investigation would cover all examinations held from 2014 to the present.
We will also soon convene to discuss the amendments made to the MMDR Act by the Central Government; if necessary, we may even call a special session to deliberate on this specific issue,” he said. He said the government was addressing all aspects of the issue and had decided to cancel all activities associated with TDPL. A portal has also been opened for students, teachers and parents to submit suggestions, which will be shared with experts,” he said.
