BJP MP Confronts Priyanka Gandhi Over Jharkhand Student Protest Visit

People in a place called Jharkhand are very upset.

They are students who want government jobs, but they think the exams were not fair.

They went out to protest peacefully.

Police used water cannons and tear gas to stop them, which many people thought was too harsh.

A leader named Rahul Gandhi said hurting peaceful students is wrong.

Another leader, Priyanka Gandhi, was asked by a politician from the ruling party why she did not visit the protesting students in Jharkhand.

She said Rahul Gandhi had already gone to meet them.

The two big political parties, Congress and BJP, are now arguing about who is responsible.

Leaders of the BJP say Congress is not being honest, because Congress is part of the government that runs Jharkhand.

Everyone agrees the students should be heard, but the parties cannot agree on who should fix the problem.
