Cancellation of Selection for Assistant Professor Physics — Jammu & Kashmir Public Service Commission

The Jammu & Kashmir Public Service Commission (JKPSC) issued a notice cancelling the selection process for the post of Assistant Professor – Physics. JKPSC is the state body responsible for conducting examinations and recruiting candidates for various posts in the Jammu & Kashmir administration, including university and college faculty positions. The cancelled recruitment was meant to fill a vacant teaching position in a government‑run higher‑education institution, and the original eligibility criteria, age limits, and number of vacancies were outlined in an earlier notification (details not repeated in the cancellation notice).

As per the official cancellation notice, no further action will be taken on the applications that had already been submitted, and candidates are advised to await any future announcements from JKPSC. The commission has not disclosed the reasons for the cancellation, which could range from administrative delays to changes in funding or policy. Interested candidates should regularly check the JKPSC website for any updates, possible re‑advertisement of the post, or alternative opportunities.

While the selection process for this particular post will not proceed, the typical recruitment cycle for Assistant Professor positions includes a written examination, followed by a viva‑voce or interview, and finally a merit list based on scores and eligibility. Candidates who meet the usual academic qualifications—normally a Master’s degree in Physics with at least 55% marks, and a Ph.D. for higher grades—should keep their application materials ready.

The cancellation does not affect other ongoing JKPSC examinations, and those looking for academic roles can still apply for other advertised faculty vacancies. It is advisable to retain the application receipt and any supporting documents, as they may be useful for future applications or appeals. For any queries, candidates should refer to the official JKPSC portal or contact the commission’s helpdesk.

Always confirm eligibility against the official notification before applying — exact criteria vary by post and category, with standard age relaxations for SC/ST/OBC/PwD and ex-servicemen as per government rules.
