The agitation has continued since then. Students were creating. Finally, the government took cognisance of this and we thank them for this.

The government made a decision in our favour. We had two demands, for PCS and for RO/ARO. 100 per cent of demands regarding PCS have been accepted. But there was a little confusion regarding RO/ARO. They then formed a committee for it. When the decision of the committee comes, we will decide our further course of action. As of now, we have called off our protest."

Another aspirant, Narendra Tiwari, said that he is "satisfied" with the government's decision."We are satisfied with the decision of the Commission, Administration and Government. One remaining demand, regarding one shift exam for RO/ARO is yet to be received by us. A committee has been formed for it. We hope that the committee will decide in our favour... The students in my area believe that we need not protest there anymore. The protest has been completely called off," he added.

Rajkumar Verma, a third aspirant, highlighted that the District Magistrate and the Secretary visited them too."DM and the Secretary came here yesterday. They decided to conduct the PCS exam on one day, and RO/ARO exam has been postponed. They have formed a committee for RO/ARO exam. We will decide the further course of action as per the decision of the committee. The PCS exam is scheduled to be held on 22nd December," he said.
