Police have registered three FIRs in connection with the Jharkhand recruitment protest, naming 28 individuals and implicating more than 900 unidentified participants.
A protest over a recruitment drive in Jharkhand prompted law enforcement to lodge three First Information Reports (FIRs). The FIRs list 28 persons by name and also cite over 900 participants whose identities remain unknown. Authorities said the filings were made to address alleged violations of public order during the demonstration. The information was reported by Careers360, which highlighted the scale of the legal action against both identified and unidentified protestors. No further details on the charges or the outcome of the FIRs have been released at this stage.
The protest, which drew a large crowd of job seekers, turned contentious, leading police to intervene. While the exact grievances of the demonstrators were not specified, the filing of multiple FIRs underscores the seriousness with which the state is treating the incident.
Further updates are expected as the investigation proceeds and the named individuals are processed through the legal system.
