On August 1st, 2025, while preparations for Independence Day echoed from the Red Fort, just a few kilometers away, a different voice of India cried out — from Jantar Mantar, where SSC aspirants and contractual teachers gathered in protest. This isn’t a story of riots or rebellion. These were students and educators, not criminals — brutally detained, dragged, and lathi-charged for demanding nothing more than fair exams and dignified futures. In this hard-hitting episode of ‘Facts & Figures’, journalist Hemant brings you a ground report from Delhi, speaking to youth who were failed by a deeply broken system. From paper leaks, mismanagement, and faulty exam centers, to SSC’s shocking decision to hand over exam conduction from TCS to a blacklisted vendor, Eduquity, this is the anatomy of a collapsing recruitment body. Candidates speak about non-functional keyboards, frozen screens, lack of basic facilities, and unjustified exam cancellations. Many sacrificed years, youth, and peace of mind for a government job — only to be met with silence and suppression. From technical glitches to systemic failure, from hope to hopelessness, this video uncovers the raw truth of a crumbling examination ecosystem. Watch to hear the voices no authority wants you to hear.
