The current age limit is 35 years, but the aspirants argue that the COVID-19 pandemic caused a two-year gap in competitive examinations, affecting their chances.

The government had issued an order from the P&AR department granting a two-year relaxation, but it did not fully address the issue for those nearing 35 years and those below.

CTAN believes that the order should be extended for another five years to ensure fairness.

The association emphasized that the frustration among unemployed youth is high across India, and Nagaland has one of the highest numbers of unemployed youths. 

They urged the authorities to address this issue with commitment and deliver justice.
