Aspirants’ Demand Leads to JKSSB JE 2025 Exam Postponement Amid Flood Situation

Many students had taken to social media, urging authorities to defer the exam in the interest of fairness. One aspirant wrote, “It’s been five days with no contact from my area, no network, roads blocked. Many of my friends don’t even know about the exam on September 7. JKSSB should postpone it by at least 15–20 days.”

Another user highlighted the hardships, saying, “Due to continuous rains, floods, power cuts and road blockages, it’s impossible for many students to reach centers or prepare. Kindly postpone the exam by 1–2 weeks.”

Another user wrote, “JKSSB is in a hurry to hold the JE Civil exam without caring about aspirants. Doda and Kishtwar have no electricity for three days, Jammu is flooded, NH closed.”

JKSSB has urged candidates to keep checking the official website, jkssb.nic.in, for updates on revised exam dates, admit cards, and other recruitment notifications.
