Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party today demanded a probe into the cancellation of examination conducted by Jammu and Kashmir Services Selection Board (JKSSB).
"We demand probe into the cancellation of examination conducted by JKSSB. The question papers have been prepared with polluted minds and questions proposed in the papers have no relevance with educational qualification or standards it all," JKNPP patron Bhim Singh said here.
Allegations of cheating and mass copying have marred the examination conducted by JKSSB, with the board cancelling the exam at two centres in Jammu following ruckus there.
The JKSSB had yesterday conducted examination for various categories of graduate-level posts which were referred by various indenting departments in 2014 and 2015.
"It amounts to a fraud against the candidates and there is in necessity to change this system to save the younger generation from the wrath of the ruling clique," Secretary JKSSB Shabir Ahmad Raina said.
JKNPP urged J&K Governor for intervention and cancel all the oral interviews which do not mean to test the knowledge of a candidate rather amounts to committing fraud with them.
Singh demanded that the papers should be set up by educational committees relevant to the subject and every district should set up an examination centre to save the youth from mental, physical or financial distress.
