Jharkhand Hunger Strike Enters 13th Day Amid Protesters' Plans to Escalate Actions
Student protester Prem Nayak is on the 13th day of a hunger strike at Jharkhand's Jaipal Singh Munda Stadium, with his health reportedly deteriorating. Authorities have taken fellow protester Devendra Nath Mahto away from the site, which Nayak claims is an attempt to weaken the movement. Protesters are considering escalating actions, including a possible siege of Chief Minister Soren's residence, a jail-filling campaign, and statewide school and college shutdowns. Discussions on these strategies are ongoing.
