数百名求职者自7月25日起在印度东部查兰德邦首府兰契的体育场集会抗议，对政府考试制度提出质疑[1]。这一行动源于4月举行的初级公务员考试，该考试成绩于7月公布后随即引发争议[1]。抗议者指控考试存在泄题和成绩操纵现象，要求废除该考试、重新举行，并由中央调查局进行调查[1]。此外，他们还要求调查招聘中的不规范现象[1]。
查兰德邦公务员委员会主席L·基昂特已于7月22日辞职[1]。部分抗议者采取绝食行动进行抗争，已在现场露宿多天[1]。查兰德邦政府表示愿与抗议者直接对话，抗议者已组建11人代表团参与协商[1]。德里"蟑螂燃烧党"独立青年运动已表示支持查兰德邦的抗议活动[1]。
Hundreds of job seekers have gathered at a stadium in Ranchi, the capital of Jharkhand state in eastern India, since July 25 to protest against alleged irregularities in government recruitment examinations [1]. The demonstrations were triggered by accusations that a junior civil service exam held in April involved question paper leaks and score manipulation, with results announced in July [1].
The protesters are demanding the cancellation of the April examination, a fresh conduct of the test, a Central Bureau of Investigation inquiry into the matter, and an investigation into irregular recruitment practices [1]. Some demonstrators have undertaken a hunger strike and have been camping at the venue for multiple days [1]. In response, the Jharkhand government has signaled willingness to engage directly with the protesters, who have formed a delegation of eleven representatives to negotiate [1].
The controversy deepened after L. Kioont, chairman of the Jharkhand Public Service Commission, resigned on July 22 [1]. The unrest reflects growing frustration among young people over employment and examination systems in India, with the movement drawing support from Delhi's independent youth movement following large-scale protests in the capital weeks earlier [1].
