Student protests in the eastern Indian state of Jharkhand have entered their 13th day, with demonstrators intensifying calls to march to the state legislature, according to Deutsche Welle.
The movement, which began earlier this month, has gained momentum as protesters continue to urge citizens to join a planned march to the state’s legislative assembly. Deutsche Welle reports that the calls for a mass rally have been amplified by student leaders, but it does not provide specific numbers of participants or names of organizers.
Jharkhand has seen a rise in student activism in recent years, reflecting broader concerns among youth about educational and political issues across India.
