Mizo Students Protest at MPSC Office Demanding Recruitment and Administrative Reforms
Hundreds of members of the Mizo Zirlai Pawl protested outside the Mizoram Public Service Commission (MPSC) office in Aizawl, demanding administrative reforms and changes to the One Time Registration (OTR) system. They called for scrapping the OTR system and allowing offline document submission for candidates disqualified due to incomplete uploads. The protest was mostly peaceful, with a brief scuffle. MPSC officials defended the OTR system, citing its role in simplifying applications and ensuring fairness, and stated there is no current justification to replace it.
