Demands to postpone Mains examination
Kohima, March 14 (MExN): Concerned over the manner in which exams are conducted by Nagaland Public Service Commission (NPSC), members of Public Service Aspirants of Nagaland (PSAN) met the Chairman of NPSC, Yanang Konyak today, according to a press release from Media Cell, PSAN.
The Aspirants submitted a representation to the Chairman, which noted that NPSC has “arbitrarily delayed” the Prelims 2016 result for 5 months and the mains exam is scheduled to be held after only one month, “which is in contravention to the guidelines issued by P&AR that clearly states that a minimum of 2 months' time should be maintained between the date of Prelims result declaration and conduct of Mains examination.” Therefore, it demanded that NPSC reschedule the Mains examination and provide atleast 2 months to prepare for the same.
The representation further asked the NPSC to come out with a yearly tentative date for Prelims, Mains and oral interview/personality test at the time of Prelims advertisement and that the whole process of examination should be completed within 365 days.
Informing that NPSC Chairman assured that a board meeting will be held to discuss the demands, PSAN prayed that prompt and timely action will be taken soon.
