Hundreds of students and police officers clashed in the Indian state of Bihar on Tuesday during a fresh protest over suspected leaks in a highly competitive state-level recruitment examination. The exam, which was conducted more than a year ago, is held to select officers for the state administration, making it a key gateway for government jobs in the region.
Demonstrators took to the streets to voice anger over the alleged paper leaks, with scuffles breaking out between the crowd and security forces. The protest is the latest in a series of student actions over the issue, reflecting widespread frustration with the integrity of the selection process. Authorities have yet to release an official statement regarding the clashes, and it remains unclear whether any injuries or arrests occurred.
