Members of the Jharkhand State Students' Union (JSSU) protested in Ranchi's Morabadi area, burning tyres on the road.
Seeking 100 per cent reservation for locals in government jobs, members of different students' organisations took to the streets of Jharkhand on Wednesday morning to enforce a state-wide shutdown.
Members of the Jharkhand State Students' Union (JSSU) protested in Ranchi's Morabadi area, burning tyres on the road. They also went to the nearby vegetable market asking vendors to shut their shops.
Similar scenes were witnessed in the other districts as well, but normal life largely remained unaffected in the morning hours.
Many schools remained closed across the state, while the Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) cancelled the scheduled examinations.
