With the ongoing indefinite bandh in Nagaland putting the normal in a limbo, students as well aspirants for exams conducted by Nagaland Public Service Commission have expressed concerns over the issue.
The Unemployed Civil Engineers' Association of Nagaland (UCEAN) in a press note today appealed the NPSC to provide information through the local dailies “on when and how to avail the admit cards, exam routines at the earliest.”
The NPSC’s Common Technical Examination (CTE) is scheduled to be held on February 25 but due to the internet ban as a result of the ongoing crisis in the state, the candidates spread all over the State are unable to access all means of social media communication, it added.
In this context, the Association of Civil, Electrical, Mechanical Engineering and Forestry requested the Secretary, NPSC to update on the steps taken for the timely and smooth conduct of the forthcoming exam.
Meanwhile, aspirants residing in far-flung areas like Tuensang and Mon District have also requested organisations imposing the current bandh to give relaxation to public transport so as to enable them to appear in upcoming CTE exam.
We need to reach at least one week ahead to mentality prepare for the exam. Most of us have chosen Dimapur and Kohima as our examination centre but we are felling apprehensive if the bandh continues, an aspirant from Mon Town said.
He said there are at least 20 candidates he knows from the district who have chosen Dimapur and Kohima as the exam centres.
While we support the bandh, we appealed for either relaxing the same of public transport to enable us to travel to our respective centres or the NPSC to postpone the exam, he added.
