Indian police used tear gas to disperse a large protest march comprised of candidates demonstrating against irregularities in a recent railway recruitment exam. The protest occurred as thousands marched in multiple cities across India, alleging cheating and demanding a fair investigation into the results. Authorities stated the use of force was necessary after protestors became violent and disrupted public order. Reports indicate several protestors and some police officers sustained injuries during the clashes. Demonstrators claim the exam results were manipulated, leading to unfair outcomes and a lack of transparency in the recruitment process. The incident has sparked widespread anger and calls for accountability from government officials and railway authorities, with further protests anticipated. Investigations into the allegations of exam irregularities are currently underway.
