Chief Minister Hemant Soren ji and the Jharkhand government chose the path of dialogue and arrived at a solution. <!-- -->The students exercised restraint and made their point heard,&#8221; Rahul said in a post on X.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"11\"\/>\u201cThis is the right way &#8211; when students raise questions, they should get answers,\u201d he added.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>He said he stood with every student in the country and called for changes to the existing system to ensure students received the full reward for their hard work and had the right to fair competition.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/>&#8220;We stand with every student in the country. And we will uproot and transform this recovery system &#8211; so that every student gets the full reward of their hard work and the right to fair competition.

He thanked Chief Minister Hemant Soren, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, ministers and others who supported the students\u2019 agitation.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>Chief Minister Hemant Soren said the decision was taken at a special Cabinet meeting after considering the concerns raised by the protesting students.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"28\"\/>\u201cToday, we held a special Cabinet meeting to bring this matter to a conclusion. <!-- -->After considering all aspects and finding solutions to the issues, we have decided to cancel all examinations conducted by TDPL, the results published by TDPL, and the selection or participation of any candidates through TDPL.
