Nationalist Congress Party (NCP SP) chief Sharad Pawar on Sunday urged the Maharashtra government to immediately hold talks with protesting Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) aspirants and address their concerns over examination transparency and administrative reforms, reported the PTI.

Pawar said there was a growing sense of unease among students in Pune, Mumbai and other parts of the state, and stressed that meaningful dialogue between the government and student representatives was necessary to resolve the deadlock.
