Sir
I want to clarify the doubts regarding the qualification for recruitment of central or government posts.
First, my qualification is SSLC (10)+DIPLOMA (3)+BCA(3)+MCA(3) 10+3+3+3
The advertisement shows the rec. of LDC is 10+2 or equivalent from recognized board/university as per UGC regulations.
I applied this post, but i didn’t get interview card.
I want to know or clarification from the sentence 10+2 or equivalent from recognized board/university as per UGC regulations.
What is equivalent qualification ?
My qualification is not suitable for this advertisement? and Why?
Please reply your valuable comments
