Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren on Tuesday said his government was treating the concerns of protesting job aspirants with “complete seriousness” and promised that appropriate decisions on their demands would be taken after a thorough review.
His remarks come as hundreds of job aspirants continue their indefinite protest at Ranchi’s Jaipal Singh Munda Stadium, where they have been demonstrating since July 29 against alleged irregularities in recruitment examinations conducted by the Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) and other state recruitment agencies.

The protesters have now stepped up their agitation by demanding that the alleged examination irregularities be investigated by an independent panel of retired High Court judges from outside Jharkhand. They argue that such a panel would ensure a fair, transparent and impartial investigation.
