New Delhi: The Leader of Opposition in Parliament Rahul Gandhi on Thursday accused the Nitish government in Bihar for lathi charge on Bihar Public Service Commission candidates in Patna during a protest over demand of cancellation of exams on December 13.
The leaders in a post on X, shared “I had said in Parliament that in the same way that Eklavya’s thumb was cut off, in the same way the thumbs of the youth are cut off by leaking the papers.”
He also wrote that the BPSC candidates are raising their voices against the paper leak and demanding cancellation of the exam. But to hide its failure, the NDA government is instead resorting to lathi-charge on the students.
Rahul called the act an extremely shameful and reprehensible saying playing with the future of students will not be tolerated. “We are with them and will fight to get them justice.
The ongoing protests by BPSC candidates have escalated, leading to a contentious police response and legal action against protesters and alleged instigators.
On Wednesday evening, protesters attempted to surround the BPSC office on this issue, prompting police action, including lathi-charge.
Patna Police have registered an FIR against protesters, some coaching institutes, and social media accounts allegedly involved in spreading misinformation and provoking candidates.
