The protest erupted a few days after the same unemployed youths had requested the JRBT to declare results.

Talking to media, a job aspirant said, ““Many of us are becoming over-aged. We do not want the processing should be canceled by any chance. Tripura state is already suffering from major unemployment problems and if results are not declared, the unemployment rate will be higher. Our exams were taken on August 2021 and it was said, by January 31st the results will be declared but right now without any proper reason, the exams are being delayed. When we are trying to reach out to the officials, the phone numbers of the official website are not giving any response. When we are sending an email, an auto-generated message saying, ‘result is under process’ is coming”.
