Mumbai, August 5 — Actor Imran Khan has once again voiced support for students protesting against alleged irregularities in examinations, this time reacting strongly to the ongoing agitation in Jharkhand.

Taking to his social media account, Khan shared a black-screen message that read: “Students protesting in Jharkhand. Let's all ignore them, what could possibly go wrong.” The remark appeared as a sarcastic criticism of the limited attention being paid to the students’ concerns.

This is not the first time the actor has publicly backed student movements. Earlier, he joined a Mumbai protest held in solidarity with students demanding fair and transparent education and examination systems. That demonstration was an extension of the Jantar Mantar protests in Delhi, where students and activists sought accountability over alleged NEET examination irregularities and demanded the resignation of then Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. Pradhan later stepped down from the post.

In Jharkhand, thousands of aspirants have been protesting in Ranchi, demanding a detailed Central Bureau of Investigation inquiry into alleged irregularities, corruption and paper leaks linked to the 14th Jharkhand Public Service Commission and JSSC-CGL examinations.

On Tuesday, actress Sonakshi Sinha also expressed concern over the situation. Sharing a video explaining the reason behind the protests on her Instagram Stories, she wrote: “It's so disheartening to see students of our country go through this… when will it stop???”

Khan’s post adds to the growing number of public figures highlighting the ongoing student agitation in Jharkhand and calling attention to the demand for a thorough investigation into the alleged examination irregularities.
