New Delhi: Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has
postponed this year’s Combined Graduate Level Examination-2014 (CGLE),
which was scheduled to be held on 27 April and 4 May, citing Lok Sabha
elections.
The new date for the examination will be intimated in due course of time, the SSC said.
In view of the general elections announced by the
government during the month of April and May, 2014, all the applicants
are hereby informed that the Combined Graduate Level Examination-2014
stands postponed, it said in a notice.
“CGLE 2014 is tentatively scheduled to be held towards
the second half of the current year. The new date will be intimated in
due course,” the commission said.
The counting for Lok Sabha elections, which begins from Monday, is scheduled to be held on 16 May.
The recruitment body will also conduct re-examination of
Combined Graduate Level Examination (CGLE)-2013 at seven
centres—Lucknow, Patna, Allahabad, Delhi, Jaipur, Shimla and
Dehradun—after the elections. There had been reports of use of unfair
means by candidates at these centres.
SSC had conducted CGLE-2013 in two phases—tier I on 21
April and 19 May, 2013 and tier II on 29 September 2013. Candidates who
