Srinagar, Jul 31: Two months after JKBOPEE approved the forms of BSC nursing candidates, aspirants have been waiting for counselling for College placements.
Several aspirants said that results of BSC nursing for which around 24000 candidates had applied were declared on 13 June 2023.
They said that since then they have been waiting for counselling to get their college placements.
An aspirant Ayyan Ahmad said that exams of many other courses were held after BSC nursing but counselling for those courses has already been conducted.
He said that due to unknown reasons, authorities have been resorting to dilly dally tactics.
Aspirants said that waiting for a long time is taking a toll on their mental health as by delaying the counseling process they are putting their future in the lurch.
“Many seats are vacant and can be filled through the counseling process but as of now they haven’t done it,” they said.
They said that the admission process goes under the guidelines of INC and once the last date is over, then no college provides them admission.
He said that in this process both aspirants and private colleges suffer as colleges can’t give admissions after the last dates are over.
When last dates are close, authorities conduct a round or two of counselling and most of the students are unable to take admissions anywhere thereby forcing them to lose one year, they added.
They said that they have brought these issues into the notice of concerned authorities several times but to no avail.
Aspirants appealed to the authorities to conduct the counseling without any further delay so that they won’t suffer anymore.
