Fresh row over Jharkhand govt recruitment, OBC leaders threaten protest
OBC leaders in Jharkhand threatened statewide protests after the Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission's recruitment notification revealed no vacancies for OBC candidates in the primary teacher category. The notification allocated only around 5% of the total 1,909 vacancies to OBCs, despite the community comprising 55% of the state's population and being entitled to 14% reservation. The controversy has sparked significant backlash from OBC organizations, demanding a fair representation in the recruitment process.
