Job Aspirants Stage Massive Protest In Dharwad, Karnataka

Thousands of job aspirants staged a protest in Dharwad on Tuesday demanding that the government take immediate steps to fill vacant posts, bringing vehicular movement to a near standstill in several parts of the city. 

The agitation turned tense as protesters expressed anger not only against the ruling party but also the opposition, refusing to allow BJP leaders



including leader of the opposition in Assembly R Ashoka and leader of the opposition in Council Chalavadi Narayanaswamy to address them.

The protesters, including candidates preparing for competitive examinations at coaching centres and those who have applied for jobs, gathered in large numbers and raised slogans seeking early recruitment and notification of vacancies.
