Protesting aspirants -staff selection comm -give 15 days time to govt

New Delhi, March 17: Thousands of protesting aspirants and students, demanding a CBI probe under a Supreme Court-monitored committee in the alleged SSC scam, on Friday gave the Central government an ultimatum till March 31 to fulfill their demands.

The protesters who have been protesting for the last 18 days across the country on Friday assembled at the Staff Selection Commission headquarters at CGO Complex in south Delhi to press for their demands.

Addressing the protesters, Swaraj India leader Anupam, who has been involved in the protests from the beginning, said that students are losing the immense patience that they have exhibited in the last 18 days.

Issuing the ultimatum, he said that the government's response has "exposed" it.
