BSNLEU writes to the Director (HR) on the issue of holding the JE LICE as "offline" exam.

In the last National Council meeting, held on 20.11.2018, Com.P. Abhimanyu, Secretary, Staff Side, demanded that the JE LICE should be conducted as an “offline” exam. He raised the above issue in his initial remarks. He cited the poor results of the last JE LICE, held on 28.01.2018, wherein only 111 candidates, out of the total 1,800 candidates who appeared in the exam, got qualified. He pointed out that most of the candidates who appear the JE LICE are from the line staff, who did not possess any working knowledge in computer. He also demanded that all Non-Executive to Non-Executive exams should be conducted as “offline” exam. Further, he suggested that, a full-fledged computer training should be imparted to the qualified candidates, so as to make them fully fit to handle the computer-related jobs. The Director (HR) who is also the Chairman of the National Council, appreciated that the suggestions and assured that, the issue would be revisited. In continuation of this, BSNLEU has written to the Director (HR), reiterating it’s demand that JE LICE should be conducted as an “offline” exam.
