Preparations are underway to cancel the process of filling 140 administrative staff posts at Ahmedabad's Gujarat University. According to a report by Sandesh, this recruitment process, which has been ongoing for the last one year, may now be heading towards a full stop. This decision is likely to render the hard work of approximately 10 thousand candidates futile.
A large number of candidates had applied for this recruitment process and approximately 10 thousand candidates had prepared for the examination. It is noteworthy that as part of this process, both preliminary and main examinations were organised, and candidates participated in both these stages. After the completion of such a long process, the preparation to cancel the recruitment may spread despair among candidates and raise questions regarding their time and hard work.
According to Sandesh, the main reason behind cancelling this recruitment process has emerged as the controversy related to the sixth pay commission. Due to this issue related to the pay commission, preparations are being made to stop the recruitment process for 140 posts. However, what the final decision regarding this will be and what the official details will be has not yet been clarified.
On the other hand, Gujarat University is now preparing to start a fresh recruitment process for 244 posts. This new process may be undertaken after the cancellation of the previous 140 posts. However, no clarification has been provided yet regarding when this new recruitment will be announced and whether the candidates who appeared for the previous examination will receive any kind of relief.
Gujarat University was established on 23 November 1949. It was a public state university located in Ahmedabad. This institution functioned as an affiliating university at the under-graduate level and a teaching university at the post-graduate level, which was awarded A+ accreditation by NAAC.
