Students protest in Jharkhand
The protest by genuine students is happening in Jharkhand and just see how they are being treated. Mr Mahto, who has been peacefully protesting and fasting for over 12 days, was not even allowed to hoist the National flag today. During the peaceful march towards the Vidhansabha, the protestors were beaten up brutally, not even sparing girls. No politician, none of the sympathizers from Jantar Mantar, no communists or so called left wing or celebrities to support, no social media campaigns for them. The protestors were not abusing anybody, not chanting anti-India slogans nor abusing the men in uniform like the cockroaches. Their problems are genuine. Many from poor, backward backgrounds. Yet they were treated inhumanely. Unlike cockroaches who were getting VVIP treatment. Sinh!

Comments
Recruitment is a common issue on which RTI applications are being filed. A transparent process ensures that there is nothing left to allege muddiness in the selection.
