The Citizens for Justice and Peace (CJP), led by Teesta Setalvad and her team, has officially declared its intention to visit Jharkhand to stand in solidarity with students currently protesting against the Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) and the Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission (JSSC). The students have been vocal in their opposition to what they describe as widespread irregularities and mismanagement within the state's examination and recruitment systems.

While the specific nature of the alleged irregularities has not been detailed in initial reports, the protests reflect growing frustration among job seekers regarding the transparency and fairness of state-level hiring. The CJP’s involvement signals an escalation in the visibility of these protests, as the organization intends to provide support to the student movement. There is currently no official response from the JPSC or JSSC regarding the specific allegations of misconduct raised by the protesters, nor has the state government issued a formal statement addressing the planned intervention by the civil rights group. The situation remains developing as students continue to demand accountability for the recruitment process.
