JAMMU, May 4: Reiterating its demand of setting up of separate Public Service Commission (PSC) for Jammu, National Secular Forum (NSF) today held a protest in University of Jammu here. The protestors also expressed their anguish over the alleged wrong paper setting pattern adopted by the PSC authorities in the optional subjects, including Chemistry-B, Dogri-B, Zoology-B, Geography-B and Agriculture-B of recently concluded KAS examinations.
Led by Vikas Sharma, president NSF, they demanded from the Chairman of Commission to decide about the pending representations of aggrieved KAS aspirants.
Sharam also demanded that fair chance be given to all the candidates as been given to the candidates who took Agricultural Sciences. "The paper of Agriculture-B was conducted again when it was boycotted by the candidates after out of syllabus questions in it but the genuine demand of the other aggrieved candidates is being ignored completely which is an injustice," Sharma said. He further said, "24 days have been lapsed since the candidates have given their representations but PSC authorities have not disposed the representations regarding Chemistry-B, Dogri-B, Zoology-B and Geography-B. "
He also condemned the attitude of PSC Chairman for ignoring the genuine demands of the students.
