CM Omar urges JKPSC to postpone CCE in view of 'delay' in LG's nod for age relaxation

SRINAGAR: (Dec 6) Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Saturday urged the Jammu and Kashmir Public Service Commission (JKPSC) to consider postponing the Combined Competitive Examination (CCE) in view of "uncertainty" resulting from Lok Bhavan's "delay" in approving age relaxation for the aspirants.

"Chief Minister expressed deep concern over the travel chaos caused by the ongoing airline issues, compounded by the uncertainty resulting from Lok Bhavan's delay in approving age relaxation, a provision granted multiple times in the past," the CM's office said in a post on X.

It said Abdullah urged JKPSC to take note of the "unprecedented stress" on aspirants and consider postponing the exam in the interest of fairness and equal opportunity for all.
