On November 12, students in Prayagraj protested against the Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission (UPPSC) exams being held in multiple shifts.

The protest continued for the fourth straight day on November 14. During the protest, some students jumped over police barricades in frustration. The students are calling for ‘One Day, One Exam’ to ensure better exam conditions for everyone.
