‘Shifts NEEPCO centres’

SHILLONG, JUNE 17: The Khasi Students’ Union (KSU) has demanded that the North Eastern Electric Power Corporation (NEEPCO) cancel the proposed written tests for various posts in the seven centres across Delhi and shift all the centres in the NE states’ capital.

In its official website, the corporation had informed that the written tests for the posts of Trainee Engineers (C), Trainee Engineer (E/M), Trainee Personnel Officer and Trainee Accounts Officer will be held on June 26.

However what irks the job aspirants from the state is that the NEEPCO had designated 7 test centers at Delhi while only 3 in the North East region.

According to the union, if NEEPCO with its headquarter in Shillong shares a genuine concern to provide employment avenues for the north east youths, the centers for the written test should have been located and held only in the North Eastern states .

“We demand that the schedule test be immediately cancelled and all the tests centre and interviews be located and conducted in the NE state capital only,” KSU chief Daniel Khyriem said in a letter to the chairman and managing director of the NEEPCO on Friday.

Stating that the lack of sufficient publicity is apparent from the dismal number of applicants and candidates from the NE states, Khyriem demanded, “Re- advertisement with wide and sufficient publicity is fundamental.” –By Our Reporter
