The JPSC-JSSC Candidates Reform Forum has announced a fresh escalation of its ongoing student protest in Jharkhand.
According to the announcement, students will burn effigies of the government across all 24 districts of the state on Sunday.
The students said the move is part of their ongoing agitation over their demands concerning the JPSC-JSSC CGL examination.
The protesting students have also announced that they will encircle the Chief Minister Hemant Soren's residence in Ranchi on August 20 if their demands are not fulfilled.
The forum has demanded a CBI investigation into alleged irregularities in the JPSC-JSSC CGL examination.
It has also demanded that the JSSC CGL examination be cancelled.
The protesters have also called for Chief Minister Hemant Soren's resignation if he is unable to fulfil their demands.
The students said this is the first time they have demanded the resignation of the Chief Minister.
The JPSC-JSSC Candidates Reform Forum, described in the statement as a students' organisation, has been holding its protest at JPS Stadium for the past 22 days.
The latest announcement comes as the students prepare to intensify their agitation across Jharkhand.
