Protests over the demand to cancel a recent Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) exam continue unabated despite attempts at resolution. The debate centers around an alleged leak of the exam's question papers, leading to significant unrest among candidates.
Chief Secretary Amrit Lal Meena engaged in talks with protesters, but a conclusive solution remains elusive. Political activist Prashant Kishor has urged demonstrators to grant the government 48 hours to address their concerns, emphasizing the need for intervention by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.
As various political entities rally in support of the protest, the BPSC maintains that canceling the entire examination is not feasible. Re-examinations have been scheduled for disrupted centers, but this move has been met with discontent by some aspirants advocating for a uniform re-examination process.
