Ahmedabad: The BE and BTech graduates received call letters from Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) for the skill test, and just minutes before they could take the skill tests space agency disqualified sixty eight candidates claiming overqualified for the job on SG Highway exam Center here.
Around 400 candidates had received call letters to take the skill test held at a city college on SG Highway on Wednesday to fill 185 vacancies in the four ISRO centres in the country.
A candidate is required to appear for a written test as a part of the recruitment process. If he/she is successful in that, he is called for a skill test
The disqualified candidates have now threatened to take the matter to court.
“ISRO had raised no objection when I had appeared for the written exam. They even sent me a call letter to take skill test. Now, all of a sudden I am not the right fit for the vacant posts? It is ridiculous”, said Manoj Kumar candidate.
“I came all the way from Nagpur just for this test. But ISRO disqualifies me just minutes before the test is to begin. Their recruitment advertisement didn’t state that BE and Btech graduates are not eligible. The agency should act responsibly”, said Dipak Mahajan candidate.
