Piyush Mishra backs Jharkhand job aspirants' protest over exam irregularities
Some adults in a place called Jharkhand are trying to get government jobs, but they think the exams for those jobs were not fair.
Because of that, they decided to protest and have been staying together at a big stadium in Ranchi.
A famous singer and actor named Piyush Mishra came to visit them and said he supports them.
He said he likes their protest because they are doing it without any political party being involved.
He sang one of his popular songs, called 'Aarambh Hai Prachand', for the protesters.
He also asked the state government to listen to the protesters and help them soon.
The government and five student groups talked, but they could not agree on a solution.
The protest has now been going on for 15 days.
The protesters say that if the government does not fix their problem by Sunday, they will walk to the state assembly building on August 10.
Singer-actor Piyush Mishra met job aspirants protesting alleged irregularities in Jharkhand's recruitment examinations.
He sang his popular song 'Aarambh Hai Prachand' at Ranchi's Jaipal Singh Munda Stadium.
Mishra said he supported the agitation because protesters continued it without political involvement.
The protest entered its 15th day after talks between the state government and five student organisations failed to end the deadlock.
Protesters warned they will march towards the state assembly on August 10 if demands are not met by Sunday.
