Srinagar, May 10: After resorting to dilly dally tactics in conducting the Mains exams for the posts of Assistant Registrar and Assistant Controller, now the approach of the University of Kashmir seems callous once again in shortlisting the candidates for the interview for the same posts.
The Varsity advertised the seven posts of Assistant Registrars and Assistant Controller and held its preliminary examination in August 2021 and declared the result in September.
It took Varsity over 7 months to conduct Mains examination and that too when the aspirants raised hue and cry alleging that the University administration tried to sabotage the recruitment process.
The Mains exams were scheduled on January 6, 2022, in which 150 candidates were eligible, but were not held as the Varsity postponed just to provide an opportunity to the blue-eyed candidates who were out of station in that month.
Under pressure, the University of Kashmir finally held the mains examination in the last week of March this year.
Since March, University is in no mood to shortlist the candidates for the interview.
“The posts were advertised three years ago on (24-10-2019) and yet the recruitment process is incomplete,” one of the candidates told news agency Kashmir News Trust.
The aspirants said that the LG Manoj Sinha who is also Chancellor of the University must intervene so that the interview is held and the posts filled at the earliest.
Despite repeated attempts, Prof. Muhammad Farooq Mir, Director of Admissions & Competitive Examinations, Prof Farooq Ahmed Mir didn’t pick up the phone. (KNT)
