Notification to conduct KAS exams issued, amendments in SRO-103 still required | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, Feb 17: Though Jammu and Kashmir Public Service Commission (JKPSC) has already advertised 187 posts to conduct Combined Competitive (Preliminary) Examination but necessary amendments in the SRO-103 are still required to formally start the process, which will pave the way to fill forms by the aspiring candidates. Pertinently, JKPSC had issued a general notification on January 8 about availability of 257 posts for Combined Competitive (Preliminary) Examination 2021 forwarded by government but later 70 posts of J&K Police (G) Service were reduced by the GAD, leaving only 187 posts to be filled by the Commission. According to sources, as per communiqué forwarded to JKPSC the GAD had asked the Commission to fill posts in accordance with the provisions contained in the Jammu and Kashmir Combined Competitive Examination Rules 2018 (SRO-103). However, necessary amendments in the SRO-103 are required to formally initiate the recruitment process, given the fact that SRO-103 was issued during the time when Jammu and Kashmir was a State rather than a Union Territory. As per SRO-103, in the Clause-8th Conditions of Eligibility the first eligibility condition was the candidate should be permanent resident of State, which would be replaced by “the candidate should be domicile of Union Territory”. Similarly in the Clause 12th, documents to be furnished by the candidates during the conduct of conduct of Mains examination, the term domicile of Jammu and Kashmir Union Territory would replace the “permanent resident of State”. Also in the 126 page documents of SRO-103, the State would be replaced by Union Territory, while changes occurred in Jammu and Kashmir following the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganization Act would also be incorporated. Sources further disclosed that since 2018 when the SRO-103 was adopted by JK, all the amendments made by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) during the conduct of gazetted posts examinations would also be incorporated in the SRO-103. Once these necessary amendments would be made in the SRO-103 and finally notified by the JKGAD as well as JKPSC, only then the candidates would be allowed to fill the application forms for the preliminary examination. Secretary of JKPSC Rajkumar Katoch said that proposals to make amendments in the SRO-103 have already been forwarded to the GAD and expressed hope that GAD would send a reply soon. Katoch further said that once the GAD would send a reply, the JKPSC would issue a detailed advertisement about posts as well as necessary eligibility conditions and other details about various important dates regarding the exams. On being asked if the PSC had taken up the matter about age-relaxation for the over-age candidates due to reduction in upper age limit, Secretary said that he would only reply once the GAD would resent the communiqué about the posts after making amendments. |
