Editor,
I, as a candidate for the upcoming Combined Graduate Level Exam-2025, have a request for both the petitioner against the district-wise quota and the APSSB.
It has been seen in some social media platforms that a petition has been filed against district-wise quota system of the APPSB in the Itanagar bench of the Gauhati High Court and the court has ordered the board to not make any appointment against the posts under district quotas.
While I myself as a candidate support the petitioner against the district quota, since I too feel that it is unjustified to have another quota under APST and it is also against merit, my grievance is that the last time too a case was filed against this system and the result was withheld for two long years and the deserving candidates who on merit got selected in the exam were unnecessarily made to wait and give other exams also despite having been selected.
The point is that the APSSB should not withhold the results of the rest of the posts because the district vacancies have been challenged in the court. Why should those selected on merit for non-district vacancies suffer because the former has been challenged in court?
I request the petitioner and the board to make arrangements, so that those selected through non-district quota get appointed in the respective posts without delay. Some of us are also ageing; please don’t delay our appointment if we get selected on merit.
A worried candidate
