The SBI conducted a Test this Sunday to select POs. Candidates were made to write from 9AM to 5.45 PM with an interval from 12 noon to 1.40 PM only. Such a tortuous schedule is unheard of elsewhere in the world. Information of these timings was not given either in the Application brochure or hall ticket. Many candidates especially those from far off places could not sit through the whole examination.
The Test is likely to be nullified by some Court of law since candidates are likely to file cases citing the timings. SBI would then conduct one more such examination. They will thus get a chance to pay crores of Rupees a second time for the same examination to the outsourced agency that conducted the examination. With about three lakhs candidates from all over India paying Rs 250/- each for the application form, this might not be tough on the SBI. The private company that is contracted to conduct the examination and the officials who award the contract alone might benefit from such an examination to select merely about 500 officers. A PSB should not adopt procedures of this kind and cheat the unemployed.
