HC stays selection process for Graduate level posts

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, June 19: High Court today stayed the selection process for Graduate level posts advertised in September 2015 by Jammu and Kashmir Service Selection Board.
While staying the selection process, Justice Janak Raj Kotwal observed, “the contention of the petitioners is that they had been allotted examination center for the written test at Boys Higher Secondary School, Bhaderwah and scheduled date of examination was 27.04.2017 from 2 PM to 4.30 PM. However, a day prior to the scheduled date, a number of candidates from Kishtwar center were transferred to the center allotted to the petitioners”.
“The authorities of the J&K SSB failed to conduct the examination on   27 04-2017   due to mismanagement caused by short notice transfer of the candidates from the Kishtwar center”, High Court further observed, adding “in the result written examination of the petitioners and all the candidates of the center,  namely boys  Secondary School, Bhaderwah was not held and they were assured that their test will be held at later stage”.
“The grievance   of   the   petitioners   is   that   without conducting the written test of the candidates allotted the center at Bhaderwah, the J&K SSB is going ahead with the completion of the selection process in spite of representations in this regard by the petitioners”, High Court said while issuing notice to the respondents.
In the meanwhile, High Court ordered that subject to objections and till next date before the Bench, selection process qua Advertisement Notifications No. 05 of 2015 and 6 of 2015 to the extent of graduate level posts shall remain stayed.
