Congress leader Rahul Gandhi criticised ally Hemant Soren after JMM government used lathi-charge, water cannons and tear gas shells on students protesting against the JPSC-JSSC irregularities. "The use of force against students protesting in Jharkhand is wrong. Students have a right to peaceful protest, and only dialogue can yield solutions," he said. Jharkhand cabinet has 4 Congress leaders.
