A JKPSC official while talking to Early Times said that after hectic efforts, administration of various colleges in Srinagar has agreed to spare space for establishment of examination centers.
"Due to devastating floods in September last year, infrastructure in colleges had suffered huge damages, due to which the administration was reluctant to provide the space. After repeated personal intervention of PSC officials and after assurance of some minor repairs and to get the rooms cleaned, the PSC authorities managed to convince the college principals, to provide them with some space", he said.
According to notification PSC/Exam/KAS (Pre)/2014 issued by JKPSC, dated January, 8, 2014, which read as, "The eligible candidates who have applied for the posts under Combined Competitive Examination, 2014 in response to Notification No.PSC/Examination/2014/36 dated 24/4/2014 that the Preliminary Examination which was postponed earlier shall now be held on March 1, 2015 (Sunday) in two sessions.
