Karnataka Protests Demand Action on Government Job Vacancies Amid Recruitment Delays

Karnataka faces widespread protests over approximately 2.8 lakh government job vacancies, with the All Karnataka State Students Association (AKSSA) demanding an immediate recruitment schedule. The state government acknowledges delays due to reservation issues but promises to initiate recruitment soon.

Protesters warn of intensified agitation if demands are unmet.
