Kargil to get B.Ed examination centre

Kargil, Nov 08:- Students pursuing B.Ed from the University of Kashmir are likely to get examination centres in Kargil and Leh, following an intervention by senior BJP leader Er Ajaz Hussain. A delegation of B.Ed students, led by Advocate Mohd Hassanain Rocky, met Hussain in Kargil and raised the difficulties faced by candidates, particularly in-service teachers, who have to undertake long journeys to Kashmir to appear in examinations. Hussain took up the matter with the Controller of Examinations, University of Kashmir, and concerned officials of the Ladakh administration, urging them to address the students' concerns. The officials assured that the issue would be resolved and that candidates from Kargil would be provided an examination centre in the district, while students from Leh would be able to appear at a centre in Leh. The delegation thanked Hussain for taking up the matter and expressed hope that the assurance would be implemented at the earliest. Hussain said students' convenience, academic interests and equal access to educational facilities should remain a priority, adding that no student should face unnecessary hardship in pursuing education. Mohd Hassan Pasha, BJP Ladakh state media secretary, was also present during the meeting.
