Ranchi: Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren stated on Saturday that the state will now offer financial aid to students in Jharkhand who are studying for competitive exams. At the introduction of Jharkhand State Employment of local candidates in the private sector and the distribution of appointment letters to roughly 11,000 young people in the private sector, the Chief Minister was addressing in this location.

According to Soren, the government would shortly develop a policy to enable the same. "The government would provide financial help for the preparations of the students who desire to take any competitive examinations, such as JPSC, UPSC, engineering, or medical," the CM declared.
