Protests in UP, Raids in Jharkhand, Violence in Manipur

On November 11, 2023, students in Prayagraj initiated a movement against the Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission. On the following day, students met with the district commissioner to present their demands, which included conducting all exams on the same day. The absence of commission officials led to students expressing frustration, while the commission defended its stance on normalization. Meanwhile, in Jharkhand, the Enforcement Directorate conducted raids related to Bangladeshi infiltration and human trafficking. This action is seen as significant ahead of elections. Jharkhand's political landscape has also promoted this issue, escalating rhetoric between the BJP and other parties. Additionally, violence occurred in Manipur's Jiri Bam, where the Kuki community attacked a CRPF camp, reportedly in retaliation for the murder of a tribal woman from their group. Understanding the sensitivities of students and local communities and analyzing the political messages surrounding these events is crucial.
