Jammu, February 20

The J&K Administrative Council (AC), which met under the chairmanship of Lt Governor Manoj Sinha, approved re-consideration of its earlier decision dated September 7 last year and restored provisions for drawing up of wait lists in recruitment to public services. Rajeev Rai Bhatnagar, Adviser to the Lieutenant Governor; Atal Dulloo, Chief Secretary; Mandeep Kumar Bhandari, Principal Secretary to Lieutenant Governor, attended the meeting.

It was also decided to grant one time exemption to recruiting agencies to draw up wait list within six months for those select lists, which have been issued since the earlier decision. “However, this shall be subject to the condition that such wait list(s) are drawn within validity period of the select list and resultant vacancies on account of non-joining of selected candidates have not been re-advertised,” the official said.
