Ranchi PhD Scholar Continues Hunger Strike, Demands Recruitment Exam Reforms

Ranchi PhD Scholar Continues Hunger Strike, Demands Recruitment Exam Reforms

There is a student named Brahmanand Kumar who is very upset.

He says the tests people take to get government jobs have serious problems.

He says he was hurt by those problems himself.

So he decided to stop eating food as a protest.

He is doing his protest in a city called Ranchi.

He is a very smart student working on his PhD.

Even though he is getting sick and weak, he will not start eating again.

He has promised to keep fasting until things change.

He even stayed outside in heavy rain and storms.

Friends tried to keep him dry with umbrellas, but he says he will keep going until the government makes things fair.
