CAT Rejects Plea to Reschedule JKSSB Examination
Imagine a big test is happening soon for some new jobs, but a few people think the date is a problem because it's the same time as another important test.
They asked a special court, like a judge, to change the date.
But the court said no!
They said it's too late to change things because everything is ready for the big test, and many people are taking it.
The court also said it's not fair to delay things for everyone just because of a few people.
The court decided the original test dates would stay the same.
CAT dismissed a plea to reschedule the JKSSB examination.
Four candidates filed the plea, citing a clash with UPSC exam dates.
JKSSB exams are scheduled for August 24 and August 31.
CAT cited the advanced state of exam preparations and the number of affected candidates (31,000+).
The CAT also noted the applicants' delayed request for rescheduling.
