Jan Suraaj chief Prashant Kishor on Thursday said that there is nothing unlawful in holding a protest at Gandhi Maidan in Patna as he launched an indefinite hunger strike there demanding the cancellation of the Bihar Public Civil Services (BPSC) examination over the alleged paper leak incident. Kishor`s reaction came as the Patna district administration wanted the protesters to vacate from Gandhi Maidan and shift the protests to the Gardanibagh area in the city.

"Who has permitted the farmers to protest in Delhi? If someone can protest on the streets in Delhi, why can`t we protest in Gandhi Maidan? We are protesting peacefully," Kishor told ANI. Prashant Kishor launched an indefinite hunger strike on Thursday, demanding the cancellation of the Bihar Civil Services (BPSC) examination over the alleged paper leak incident and joined the aspirants of the BPSC in their protest at Gandhi Maidan.
