Thousands of aspirants staged protests on Wednesday in Patna demanding the withdrawal of new changes introduced by the BPSC which included conducting the exam on two days and result preparation based on the percentile system. The protestors created ruckus on the road which led to police lathi-charge on students and several of them got injured.

Meanwhile, aspirants have welcomed the decision taken by the chief minister. Amit Kumar, an aspirant from Patna, said, “I am glad that the old exam system has been restored. I was apprehensive that the percentile result system will not prove beneficial for us.”

More than 6 lakh candidates are likely to take the exam across the state.
