Protest in Bengaluru Over Delay in Recruitment Orders
The
recruitment process for the post of Junior Training Officer (JTO) began with a
notification issued in 2018, followed by the entrance exam conducted the same
year. Document verification was completed in 2019, and the final selection list
of eligible candidates was published in 2021. Subsequently, the list was
forwarded to the department after verification of document authenticity.
Discontent
arose when some candidates, rejected during the verification process, resorted
to legal action against the KPSC. Despite the court’s involvement, only 400 out
of 1,520 eligible candidates have received their appointment orders so far. The
remaining candidates await their recruitment orders, prompting the protest
against the alleged delay by the KPSC in complying with the court's directives.
The
protesting candidates accused the KPSC of intentionally stalling the issuance
of appointment orders, underscoring their demand for immediate action to
resolve the issue.
