Kargil, July 27, 2025 — In a significant development, PhD Scholars of Chemistry and commerce today met with the Hon’ble Lieutenant Governor of Ladakh, Kavinder Gupta, to press for a one-time relaxation in the recruitment eligibility criteria for lecturer posts across the Union Territory.
The delegation requested that PhD holders who possess a Master’s degree but lack a B.Ed qualification be allowed to appear in the upcoming lecturer recruitment examinations.
