Jaipur: Supporting RAS mains aspirants, Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) joined the protest on Thursday with the demand that the exam should be postponed. The exam is scheduled to take place on June 17-18.
From Friday, a few aspirants also started an indefinite hunger strike at the Rajasthan University campus.
ABVP functionaries, along with the students, have been on an indefinite sit-in protest since Thursday night. RAS aspirants gathered at Rajasthan University said that initially, they were not allowed to enter the university campus on Thursday night, after which they sought support from ABVP for the protest.
Deepak Kaushik, an RAS aspirant leading the protest, said, "We took support from ABVP as despite several memorandums and requests submitted to the authorities, our demands are not being heard. We have made our demands known to every minister of the govt, MLA, and even the Deputy CM and have also received letters of support, but till now no cognizance has been taken by the chief minister on this issue."
The applicants have pointed out that the interviews for RAS 2023 are currently in progress, with the final results pending announcement.
