‘Mass copying’ in SSB Exams: Jammu aspirants demand re-examination

Share

KISHTWAR: The written examination for graduate level posts which was conducted by Jammu and Kashmir Services Selection Board (JKSSB) on Friday has come under scanner after mass-copying surfaced in some of the centers.

Applicants from all over the state have shown their strong resentment over mass copying in various centres that took place in yesterday’s graduate level examination.

This exam was first of its kind where over 59000 aspirants took part in written examination at over 1000 centres located all over the state out of total 90000 applicants.

Aspirants have said that government should hold an enquiry into the matter so that the “tall claims” of fair conduct of examination be achieved. They demanded re-examination of the written test and rued over the arrangements made by the authorities in various centres. An aspirant from Kishtwar fainted during the exams. The candidate was writing exams in the centre located at Sheen Public School, Doda.

“The applicants who studied hard day and night in order to crack the exam are the biggest victims of such an ‘unfortunate incident’ and such an ‘unholy thing’ will have drastic effect on them thereby denying the deserving candidates of their rights,” a candidate said.

It is pertinent to mention here that JKSSB has been under strong criticism from the aspirants as the board has miserably failed in allocating the centre to the Kishtwar based applicants at Kishtwar and were allotted centres in other districts.

Furthermore, it has been urged that the Services Selection board should arrange the examination centres to the applicants in their respective district in future which will ease off the sufferings of aspirants.

Bhim Singh demands enquiry in fraud 

SRINAGAR: Prof Bhim Singh, chief patron and founder JKNPP Saturday condemned J&K government for “playing fraud” with the new generation looking for justice and equity.

Singh said that cancelation of written objective test from the candidates appearing in SRO 202 etc amounts to a fraud against the candidates and there is in necessity to change this system to save the younger generation from the wrath of the ruling clique.

“Calling unemployed youth from Rajouri, Poonch to Jammu, Reasi, Ramban etc to Udhampur amounts to big fraud against the students,” he said. “Each candidate has been subjected to suppression, oppression rather cheated by the government through SSB.”

“The question papers have been prepared with polluted minds and with a fraud because the questions proposed in the papers have no relevance with educational qualification or standards it all.”

Prof Singh urged Governor of J&K for intervention and cancel all the oral interviews which do not mean to test the knowledge of a candidate rather amounts to playing fraud on the candidates heaving no political pull or pressure otherwise.

He demanded that the papers should be set up by educational committees relevant to the subject. “Every district should set up an examination centre to save the youth from mental, physical or financial distress,” he said.
