SSC exams coincide with proposed JCC bandh

Dimapur, Jan. 25: The Staff Selection Commission (NER), Guwahati has appealed ‘all the public councils, fora, organizations and committees’ not to call any bandhs/strikes/agitations from January 27 till February 1 since it would coincide with the SSC’s Combined Higher Secondary Level, 2016 (Tier-1) computer based examination. A press release from the SSC regional office on Wednesday informed that ‘about 720 candidates from the state’ were going to appear said examination scheduled to be held from January 27 till February 1 at Soft-Tech Education Centre, Opposite Holy Cross School, Lungalung Complex, Dimapur. “Any inconvenience caused to the candidates by way of blocking of road or other disruptive activities at the venues will deprive the job aspiring youths of the state the opportunity to compete with the rest of the country for various posts of central government of India. “Hence it is once again fervently appealed to all concerned organizations not to call for any bandh/strike/agitation activity during the above period so that all the candidates from the state can come and take the examination successfully without any hassles or disruption. In case, bandh is called during the above period, candidates and exam officials may be exempted from the purview of bandh,” it appealed.
