Jharkhand Police clarified a viral video showing security personnel carrying what appeared to be a pellet gun. Police said, “What is being mistaken for a pellet gun is actually a paintball gun.” The gun fires soft, coloured balls to identify troublemakers, officials said. The clarification came as students prepared to march to the Jharkhand Assembly on Monday. Student leader Kunal said, “Our Vidhan Sabha gherao will continue peacefully.” Students are demanding a CBI probe into alleged exam irregularities. The government has offered a judicial inquiry instead. Meanwhile, Governor Santosh Kumar Gangwar accepted the resignations of three JPSC members.
