JK Bank now in safe hands

Sir,
JK Bank known as a back bone of our State economy is now in safe hands . Luckily JK Bank announced a notification of recruitment for the post PO and BA in October 2018 and that notification shows total vacancies as 1500 . As we all know that unemployment in Jammu is highest as compared to any other city or state and it was a great opportunity for the unemployed youth of our state.
Almost one lakh candidates from all over the state filled the form for Rs 800 for PO and 700 for BA with keeping 1500 vacancies in there mind and started preparation from Oct 2018. JK Bank got a revenue of crores from this recruitment through form filling and announced the dates of examination in December i.e 25th Feb for PO and 26, 27 28 for BA . Due to the curfew and harsh conditions JK Bank postponed the exams so new dates were decided i.e 22 April for PO and 24, 25, 26 for BA.
JK Bank conducted the exam through IBPS so exam was conducted successfully and in a smooth manner The PO exam contains three phases. First is preliminary 2nd phase is mains 3rd phase is interview and BA post contains only one phase that is preliminary. The result of PO Preliminary was declared on 9th May 2019. When marks were published on the official JK Bank site it was observed that cutoff was decided on the basis of districts. But when notification was issued a total of 250 vacancies were mentioned which means it is a state wise recruitment. So few candidates from Jammu division lodged protest aginst the discrimination done by the JK Bank. After 4, 5 days ex CEO Parvez Ahmed realised the error done by the JK Bank immediately announces a uniform cutoff of 40 which means its a state wise recruitment..After his removal from the office, 2nd phase of PO i.e mains was conducted on June 17, successfully under the chairmanship of R K Chibber. But there results are still awaited. Few days back some news channels ran a story claiming that J&K Bank faces the prospect of a merger with a public sector bank, most likely the State Bank of India.But there has been no initiative from the RBI regarding merger of the J&K Bank. JK Bank is an eight decade old premium financial institution of the state and plays an important role in economic development of our state and the trust of all the stakeholders of our state is still in our financial institution JK Bank.
