A protest by Maharashtra Public Service Commission aspirants has entered its sixth day. The agitation was intensified by NCP MLA Rohit Pawar, who symbolically cremated a dummy bier. This act represented the dreams of poor students, according to Pawar. The symbolic cremation was carried out near a river in the presence of protesting students.
The funeral, Pawar said, was not for a person but for the aspirations of students whose demands were being ignored by the government. Further details of the protest and the symbolic cremation are available.
The protest is ongoing, with students continuing to demand action from the government.
