Rahul Gandhi criticized the government regarding police actions taken during protests, asserting that the government either authorized the response or was unaware, making it responsible in either case. His remarks come amid growing tensions surrounding recent police engagement with students in Jharkhand.

In a related development, BJP leaders staged a protest outside Chief Minister Hemant Soren's residence, labeling the police's actions as the 'final nail in the coffin' of the ruling JMM-Congress coalition in the state. They called for Congress to reconsider its support for the current government.
