Social media on Saturday witnessed another student agitation close on the heels of huge protests against the government’s decision to conduct NEET and JEE amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
These government job aspirants protested over the delayed results of the Combined Graduate Level (CGL) of the Staff Selection Commission (SSC-CGL) exam and the Railway Recruitment Board’s Non-Technical Popular Categories (RRB NTPC) recruitment test.
On March 22, India observed ‘Janata Curfew’ and supported the call by PM Modi for clapping and beating Thalis for hailing the COVID-19 warriors. Mocking the event, aspirants arranged an event wherein they clapped and beat thalis and clanged pots to express their solidarity with unemployed youth.
