"Jo log chhatra-virodhi hai unka Ram-Ram satya hai": Pappu Yadav slams Nitish govt

Patna: Independent MP from Purnea, Pappu Yadav, on Sunday lashes out at the Nitish Kumar-led Bihar government over the ongoing protests by BPSC aspirants.
He stated that those opposing the students have lost public support, underlining that the Bihar Bandh is widely backed by the people of the state.
Speaking to the media, Yadav said, "Sarkar ka Ram-Ram satya karna hai. Jo log chhatra-virodhi hain unka Ram-Ram satya hai. The people of Bihar are on the streets, and students are on the streets. Everyone is supporting this (Bihar Bandh)."
Supporters of Pappu Yadav held protests in Patna's Ashok Rajpath, demanding the cancellation and re-examination of the BPSC exam. Visuals showed them blocking roads, burning tyres, and reiterating their demand for the cancellation of the Bihar Public Service Commission's Integrated Combined (Preliminary) Competitive Examination (CCE) 2024, conducted on December 13, following allegations of a question paper leak.
On Saturday, Yadav announced his collaboration with Azad Party founder Chandrashekhar Azad and AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi to address the BPSC Preliminary Exam issue, vowing not to let the Assembly function from March 21.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Court, on Tuesday, declined to entertain a plea alleging widespread malpractices in the 70th BPSC Preliminary Exam. A bench comprising Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna and Justices Sanjay Kumar and KV Viswanathan advised the petitioner to approach the Patna High Court with their grievances.
During the hearing, Anand Legal Aid Forum Trust, representing the petitioner, alleged police brutality against peaceful protesters demanding the cancellation of the exam. Bihar Police reportedly used force to disperse civil service aspirants who were demonstrating against the alleged irregularities.
On Monday, Jan Suraaj Party chief Prashant Kishor was granted unconditional bail by a Patna court after being sent to Beur jail for refusing to pay the bail bond.
