Ranchi, Jan 28: BJP State President and former Chief Minister Babulal Marandi strongly criticized the state government today.
Marandi highlighted that the government has postponed the 8th board examinations in the state, and now uncertainty looms over the 10th board examinations as well.
He pointed out that the delay is due to the vacancy of the Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) Chairman’s post, which has left the future of lakhs of students in jeopardy. Approximately 21 lakh students, who are due to appear for their matriculation, intermediate, and other board examinations, are now facing disruptions because of this administrative gap.

JPSC also awaits Chairman
He also raised concerns about the long-standing vacancy of the Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) Chairman’s post, which has remained unfilled since August last year. This has caused delays in several important examinations, leaving thousands of candidates under immense mental and financial stress. Despite years of hard work and preparation, these aspirants are now uncertain about their future.
Marandi stated that student welfare and job creation should be the top priorities of any government. However, he lamented that the students of Jharkhand are facing such instability under the current administration.
He urged Chief Minister Hemant Soren to take immediate action and fill these critical positions to safeguard the interests of students and aspirants across the state.
