The Telangana High Court on Friday granted time till Monday for the TSPSC to respond on the issue pertaining to postponement of Group II examination.
Justice P Madhavi Devi was dealing with a writ plea filed by D Mahesh and 149 other aspirants seeking Court directions for rescheduling the Group II examinations which was proposed to be held on August 29 and 30.
Petitioners said that a total of 21 examinations including Gurukula Teacher and Polytechnic exams are being conducted in month of August only and that they don’t have sufficient time to deal with all the exams at once.
The government pleader on the other hand submitted that out of the 5.5 lakh candidates applied for the Group II exam only 60 thousand candidates are appearing for Gurukula Exam.
He also said all the arrangements were made for conducting the exam in 1535 centres.
In all those 1535 schools and colleges, holidays were declared on respective dates and it would be difficult to reschedule the exam, the government pleader said.
However, in the existing situation we are reconsidering the issue, he said and sought time for conveying the decision to Court. Conceding with the request of the government pleader, the judge adjourned the case to Monday.
