Use of force against peaceful protesters wrong: Rahul Gandhi condemns police action on Jharkhand students

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi condemned police action against students protesting in Jharkhand over recruitment process fairness and accountability. The students marched towards the state Assembly, but police deployed tear gas and water cannons after barricades were breached.

Gandhi termed the use of force against peaceful protesters as wrong. The Jharkhand government faces mounting pressure to address student grievances and resolve the underlying recruitment issues.

Meanwhile, the CID arrested the former JPSC Chairman as part of an ongoing investigation related to the recruitment matter.
