Devendra Mahto Launches Recruitment Reform Yatra on Aug 24

Jharkhand Loktantrik Kranti Morcha (JLKM) leader Devendra Mahto announced on Friday that his organisation would launch a 'Bharti Vyavastha Sudhar Yatra' (Recruitment System Reform Yatra) on August 24. The yatra will cover all 24 districts of the state.

Mahto made this announcement after the Jharkhand High Court stayed the government's decision to cancel multiple exams. He stated that they would not compromise on their struggle at any cost. The ongoing student movement in the state has become a focal point of national attention, with Mahto asserting that his fight is not aimed at depriving innocent candidates of their jobs.

There is a strong sentiment attached to the CGL issue, and even selected students are facing difficulties today. Mahto's fight has never been about taking away the jobs of innocent students. Instead, he demands that the government take responsibility for ensuring justice to deserving candidates and draw a clear distinction between those allegedly involved in irregularities and those who are innocent and deserving.

The Jharkhand government had earlier decided to cancel multiple exams, which Mahto described as a 'historic decision'. The decision was based on a CID investigation report that recorded statements of several ministers and pointed to multiple irregularities. However, when the High Court gave the government an opportunity to present its case, it did not firmly place the CID investigation report before the court.

This development has disappointed students and the people of Jharkhand. Meanwhile, members of the JPSC-JSSC Reform Manch staged a protest at Albert Ekka Chowk in Ranchi, demanding reforms in the recruitment process and action against alleged irregularities in various examinations conducted by the JPSC and JSSC.

The protest escalated when protesters attempted to burn effigies of Chief Minister Hemant Soren, leading to a scuffle between the police and the agitators. The situation remains tense, with the student movement gaining momentum.

The Bharti Vyavastha Sudhar Yatra is expected to cover all 24 districts of the state, with Mahto and his supporters demanding justice for deserving candidates and reform in the recruitment process. The yatra is seen as a significant step in the ongoing student movement, which has been demanding transparency and accountability in the recruitment process.

The Jharkhand government has been facing criticism over the alleged irregularities in various examinations conducted by the JPSC and JSSC. The government's decision to cancel multiple exams was seen as a step in the right direction, but the High Court's stay on the decision has raised questions about the government's commitment to ensuring justice to deserving candidates.

In conclusion, the launch of the Bharti Vyavastha Sudhar Yatra by Devendra Mahto is a significant development in the ongoing student movement in Jharkhand. The yatra is expected to put pressure on the government to reform the recruitment process and ensure justice to deserving candidates. The movement has gained national attention, and it remains to be seen how the government will respond to the demands of the students and the people of Jharkhand.

The situation in Jharkhand is a reminder of the importance of transparency and accountability in the recruitment process. The government must take responsibility for ensuring justice to deserving candidates and draw a clear distinction between those allegedly involved in irregularities and those who are innocent and deserving. Only then can the trust of the people be restored, and the recruitment process can be made fair and transparent.
