The applicants said while as written test was held -thereafter some of the shortlisted candidates were sent letters for oral interviews.
Senior officials in the department said the recruitment had to be done on the written test alone by virtue of a government order which “doesn’t allow oral test for such posts.”
A General Administration Department order dated May 28, 2020, states that “In exercise of the powers conferred by provision to Article 309 of Constitution of India and in supersession of all rules/orders on the subject, the Lieutenant Governor of Union territory of Jammu and Kashmir is pleased to direct that there shall be no oral test for posts upto and including Pay Level 5 (Rs.29200-92300) and the selection for all such posts shall be made on the basis of written test only with further stipulation that trade test/skill test wherever prescribed shall continue to be held as per the relevant recruitment rules.”
“This notification shall also apply to such of the selections undertaken by the recruiting agency where the written test has not been conducted on the date of publication of this notification: Provided that the procedure for selection for all posts for which test has already been conducted by the recruiting agencies shall continue to be governed by the rules/orders in force on the date of advertisement,” the order adds. The applicants said why was the selection not being made on the written test merit when the government has made it mandatory. A senior official in the concerned department who spoke to the Early Times on the condition of anonymity said the matter would be looked into. Meanwhile the job applicants have sought personal intervention of Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha into the matter. “We request Honorable LG to intervene as the orders issued in 2022 on the directions of the LG are being violated,” the applicants said. |
