Dharna continues demanding postponement of RAS main exam date, candidates warn of hunger strike

The protest of the candidates is gaining strength, asking for postponement of the date of the RAS main exam 2024 by the Rajasthan Public Service Commission and publication of the calendar of the annual exams. The ongoing indefinite protest on the campus of the Rajasthan University is on its third day today, and now the protest has assumed the form of a hunger strike. 

The protest is being led by many women candidates along with ex-servicemen and another category of candidates. The administration and government are being presented with their demands in a peaceful manner in the Gandhian spirit. The protesters, on Thursday, proceeded into the university carrying the national anthem with them, with a strong police force deployed.

The candidates say that they are demanding to conduct the main examination only after the release of the final selection list of RAS 2023, so that transparency and justice can be ensured. They are also demanding that the RPSC release the annual examination calendar, so that the youth preparing for competitive examinations can get a clear direction.
