Job aspirants led by Devendra Nath Mahto began an open-ended sit-in on Jul 25, escalating through an Aug 10 march on the Assembly that police met with tear gas and water cannons, before the Jharkhand government cancelled the JSSC-CGL exam and all tests run by vendor TDPL since 2014 on Aug 17, forming a reforms committee and prompting Mahto to end his 16-day hunger strike. A planned Aug 20 siege of the Chief Minister's residence was called off, but the Jharkhand High Court has since stayed the exam cancellations for roughly 2,000 already-appointed candidates, leaving the protesters' central demand for a CBI probe unresolved. Added 7 timeline events, 4 map points, 2 casualty rows, 2 contested claims, 2 political profiles (Mahto, Hemant Soren) and 2 KPIs covering this new front.Sun, 23 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMTdailyhttps://watchboard.dev/india-youth-uprising/#digest-2026-08-21/https://watchboard.dev/india-youth-uprising/#digest-2026-08-21/The NEET/CBSE-era street protests remain wound down since the July 25 settlement, but institutional friction over exam integrity resurfaced when the NTA's UGC-NET June 2026 papers were found riddled with errors.
