The Story in Brief
The Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad said it will continue nationwide protests against alleged paper leaks, examination irregularities and recruitment problems. The RSS-affiliated student organisation said it has held protests in Punjab, Jharkhand, Karnataka and Bihar, seeking transparent examinations and greater accountability from examination agencies.
ABVP alleged that Punjab police used lathi-charge and water cannons against protesters during an Assembly gherao, leaving some activists with fractures and ruptured eardrums. It has sought a CBI probe into a KPSC recruitment controversy, a time-bound inquiry into an alleged Patna University law entrance paper leak, and action over alleged JPSC and JSSC irregularities. It is also opposing a proposed private universities law in Madhya Pradesh and pursuing scholarship, fee and recruitment issues elsewhere.
The Indian Opinion
The easy narrative is that every exam complaint proves a system-wide scam, while the opposing claim is that student protests are simply political theatre. Neither is enough. ABVP’s allegations, including injuries in Punjab, need independent verification, and each paper leak or recruitment case requires a recorded inquiry and a public timeline. The useful test is simple: how many cases lead to published findings, cancelled tests where necessary, and action against those responsible?
