WBSSC Exam Date: The SSC examination for the recruitment of teachers for classes IX-X and XI-XII is set to be held in the first week of September. According to sources in the Education Department, the exam dates have been finalized and sent for approval to higher authorities. This news has brought a new ray of hope among the job aspirants in the state.
Application Deadline Extension and Exam Details
The application process for the SSC exam is currently underway and was scheduled to end on July 14th. However, as the application portal was closed for two and a half days in between, the deadline for submission might be extended. This could cause a slight delay in the application scrutiny and school selection process, which might, in turn, affect the exam schedule.
Exam Pattern and Supreme Court Verdict
This year’s examination will be conducted in two phases – one for classes IX and X, and the other for classes XI and XII. However, there is still no clear directive regarding the examination pattern, whether it will follow the old rules of 2016 or a new format. It is expected that a detailed notification on this matter will be released soon.
Meanwhile, the state has filed a review petition in the Supreme Court, the verdict of which is still pending. The hearing for this case will take place after the Supreme Court’s summer vacation. The future of the examination largely depends on this verdict.
OBC Reservation and EWS Quota
Some important information regarding OBC reservation has also come to light. The 66 categories that were listed as OBC before 2010 will be eligible to apply under this reservation. For those whose names have been excluded from the new OBC list, a final decision on whether they can apply under the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) quota will be known after the Supreme Court hearing on July 3rd.
Aspirants are advised to utilize this time effectively and continue their preparations for the exam in full swing. It is essential to keep an eye on the official websites and reliable news sources for any new updates.
