‘Candidates for exam put to hardship’

15/01/2020 , staff reporter, MADURAI

Students writing the main examination for recruitment to clerical cadre in 17 nationalised banks have been gravely inconvenienced as their preferred centres and the centres appearing on their hall tickets were different, said Madurai MP Su. Venkatesan.

In a press release, he said students residing in Madurai would have to travel all the way to Chennai and Coimbatore to appear for the main exam scheduled for January 19.

“Some people have been asked to go to Chennai. In fact, the centre at Coimbatore was not even a choice for the main examination as per the notification. The unemployed youth cannot be expected to spend thousands of rupees just to attend the exam,” the statement read.

Socially and economically backward and rural poor aspirants would not even have the chance to appear for the exam as they would not be able to shell out the money for travelling. “The bank officially should not create a new controversy,” he said.
