JKSSB, JKPSC: Important Update on Waiting Lists

In a move hailed as positive news for job seekers in Jammu and Kashmir, reports suggest the J&K government is considering reverting its decision to quash the waiting list for JKSSB and JKPSC recruitments.

This comes after the government did away with the provision of preparing waiting lists for government services in past years, repealing the rules that mandated recruiting agencies to draw up such lists to fill dropout vacancies.

Earlier, in a move that drew criticism from aspirants, the J&K government had abolished the provision of preparing waiting lists for government recruitments agencies like the Public Service Commission and Services Selection Board.

This move sparked disappointment and uncertainty among aspirants who had appeared for various JKSSB exams, as it meant that vacancies arising due to dropouts or other reasons would not be filled from an existing waiting list.

However, according to recent reports, the government is now considering backtracking on this decision and reviving the waiting list system.

This potential positive development comes after representations from various quarters, including job aspirants and opposition parties, who highlighted the concerns and Nachteile of doing away with the waiting list.

While an official confirmation from the government is awaited, the reports have brought a wave of relief and hope to many aspiring candidates who had participated in recent JKSSB recruitment processes.

The implementation of a waiting list system would ensure that vacancies are filled promptly and efficiently, without the need for conducting fresh exams, thereby saving time and resources.

It is important to note that these are still reports, and an official announcement from the J&K government is yet to be made.

However, the potential revival of the waiting list system is a welcome development for job seekers in the region and could provide much-needed clarity and assurance regarding the recruitment process
