How can there be trust without a CBI inquiry? Students breached five barricades and did not stop despite lathi-charges and tear gas.

How can there be trust without a CBI inquiry? Students breached five barricades and did not stop despite lathi-charges and tear gas.

On August 10, 2026, in Ranchi, the capital of Jharkhand, protesting students faced a lathi-charge, and barbed-wire barricades had been erected to halt their advance. Yet, the sheer determination of the agitating students—which had already pitted them against the Soren government—drove them all the way to the threshold of the Jharkhand Legislative Assembly. The students breached not just one, but five barricades in succession. As the barricades fell one by one, the Jharkhand Police deployed water cannons; however, this is Gen Z—the moment they saw the water jets, they turned it into a ‘rain dance.’
