Two tunes in NDA: Chirag backs BPSC agitation, Manjhi sees politics in it

Hindustan Times  

The ongoing agitation by the aspirants of the Bihar Public Service Commission 70th combined entrance test continues to heat up politics in Bihar in the run-up to the Assembly elections to be held later this year. Two tunes in NDA: Chirag backs BPSC agitation, Manjhi sees politics in it Union minister Jitan Ram Manjhi, who is also the patron of HAM-S party, on Wednesday openly said that the BPSC aspirants’ agitation has continued only because of politics and there is no justification of holding re-examination for all the students as is being demanded by the protesting aspirants. Union minister Chirag Paswan, who is also chief of his party Lok Janshakti Party -Ramvilas, expressed solidarity with the students’ cause. He specifically said that he was with the cause with which Jan Suraaj party founder Prashant Kishor sat on fast-unto-death in solidarity with the BPSC aspirants. Political analysts also view that the BPSC row has certainly snowballed into an issue which every political party is eying to take advantage of.
