Police lathicharge BPSC TRE 3.0 candidates outside Bihar CM's house

Hundreds of aspiring teachers, who had appeared for the government school Teacher Recruitment Examination 2024 (TRE 3.0) conducted by the Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC), staged a peaceful protest near Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's residence in Patna on Tuesday demanding a supplementary result for the vacant seats.

The Bihar Police used batons to remove them forcefully asserting that the protesters had entered the 'restricted area'.

The TRE 3.0 was organised to fill a total of 87,774 vacant posts of teachers, but the results were declared for only 66,000 posts. The government has not given any clarification about the pending result for about 21,000 posts.

The candidates have been protesting for the past four months but the government has not responded to their demands.

In March, aspiring teachers had gheraoed Education Minister Sunil Kumar near his house demanding publication of supplementary results of TRE 3.0.
