Supriya Sule Backs MPSC Protest, Accuses Government of Diversion
Students in Pune are protesting problems with government job examinations.
They are especially concerned about an alleged leak in the Drug Inspector examination.
Supriya Sule supported the students and said they should be studying instead of protesting.
She accused the Maharashtra government of avoiding a larger economic crisis by focusing attention on other issues.
She also said the government should send a senior official to speak with the students.
The Mumbai Crime Branch has arrested six people in the case, including three MPSC officials.
The government has promised to review the examination system and strengthen protections against leaks.
The students still want clearer answers and more accountability.
NCP (SP) MP Supriya Sule accused the Maharashtra government of diverting attention from an alleged economic crisis.
Thousands of MPSC aspirants protested in Pune over alleged examination irregularities and a Drug Inspector paper leak.
Sule urged the government to send a senior representative to negotiate with the students.
The recruitment process was cancelled after a preliminary police inquiry reportedly found evidence of a question paper leak.
The Maharashtra government has announced reviews and stronger measures, but protesters continue demanding accountability.
