Burning Symbolism: The Jharkhand Protests Take a Radical Turn The protests in Jharkhand have been ongoing for weeks, with students and activists demanding reforms in the state's examination and recruitment processes.
A recent incident has taken an extreme turn, with a protester performing what he called the "last rites" of Chief Minister Hemant Soren and Lok Sabha leader Rahul Gandhi.
Baha Linda shaved his head as part of this symbolic gesture, which he said was meant to convey that these leaders are dead to him.
