Administrative negligence: At some places, students were not given admission despite arriving on time.

Non-availability of seats: At many centers, the number of seats available was not as many as the number of students called.

In which cities was the exam cancelled?

Delhi: The exam was cancelled at many centers, including Bharti Vidya Niketan Public School. Now this exam will be conducted again on 24, 25, and 26 September.

Gurugram: The exam was cancelled at MM Public School. Students alleged that despite arriving on time, they were not given admission, and those who took the exam faced technical difficulties.

Jammu: The exam was cancelled due to technical flaws.

Bokaro and Kolkata: Here too the exam has been cancelled. SSC has said that *new dates** will be announced soon for these cities.

Anger and worry among students

Expectation of a new schedule

SSC has already announced new dates for some cities (September 24 to 26), while new dates for other cities will be released soon. Students have been advised to keep an eye on the official website of SSC.

Such negligence is not expected from a prestigious institution like SSC. To give students a better experience and respect their time, it is necessary that the examination centers be fully prepared in advance and the technical system be improved. It is hoped that SSC will take strict steps to avoid such a situation in the future.
