India Student Anger Spreads With Fresh Clashes in Eastern State

Student protests continue to simmer across India, a month after nationwide demonstrations over an exam scandal forced the country’s education minister to resign, underscoring persistent anger over the integrity of the country’s testing and recruitment system.

The protests, which began last week over unemployment, later included demands for education reforms and fairer exams.

Hundreds of students clashed with police on Tuesday in India’s Bihar state over alleged paper leaks in an exam.
