The Story in Brief
Veteran actor Piyush Mishra on Saturday joined the student protest in Ranchi, Jharkhand, in support of JPSC-JSSC aspirants alleging irregularities in recruitment examinations. He was moved by the pain in the aspirants' eyes, timesnownews.com reports. Mishra sang his revolutionary song Aarambh Hai Prachand from the film Gulaal with the protesters.
Earlier, Bollywood singer-composer Ankur R Pathak had also extended support. Mishra said he provided food, tarpaulins and financial help within his capacity. The protest is part of a larger movement by the Cockroach Janata Party that previously pressured the government over the NEET paper leak, leading to the resignation of Union minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
The Indian Opinion
The sight of a Bollywood actor singing with protesters may be dismissed as a publicity stunt. But Piyush Mishra also provided food and tarpaulins, tangible help beyond the camera. The protest by JPSC-JSSC aspirants has specific demands about recruitment exam irregularities. The real test will be whether the Jharkhand government addresses those demands or lets the spectacle drown out the issue.
