Sub:Enrolment for JNVST-2018 – Additional provision for registration - reg.

***************

Sir/Madam,

We have initiated the process of online registration for JNVST-2018 in collaboration with Common Service Center under Ministry of IT. The process is in progress. The expected target of registration is not yet achieved due to various reasons.

Many reports are being received regarding the difficulties faced by the parents/ candidates regarding online registration. By considering the difficulties faced by the desiring candidates/ parents, the competent authority has approved the additional provision of application through offline mode also. It is again reiterated that the existing provision of registration through CSC will continue till the last date of receipt of application i.e. 25th November 2017. Meanwhile such of those parents/candidates who find it difficult to apply online may apply through offline mode for which a separate applicationform is enclosed. The parents/ candidates may submit the application verified by the Head Master to the JNV of the district concernedon or before 25th November, 2017. JNV shall provide due acknowledgement for the same to the parent/candidate. JNVs have to make arrangement for translating the information in the hard copies into the soft format so that the Bio-data may be prepared and submitted to CBSE accordingly.

You are requested to make arrangement to intimate the eligible candidates that application may also be submitted through offline mode in addition to the existing online mode. The candidates who have already registered successfully through CSC need not submit another application through offline mode.

Please ensure that wide publicity in this regard is given to the parents/candidates so that registration for JNVST-2018 is increased atleast by 5 to 10% compared to JNVST-2017.

When the application form is received by the JNV, arrangement is to be made to transfer the information into soft form in the prescribed format. A separate registration number is to be provided by the JNV for this offline application. The registration number will be of 12 digits. Sample registration number is given below:

State Code / District code / Block code / Code to indicate School (JNV) registration / 5 digits to indicate the serial no. of the application form registered at JNV level.
S

For example, registration number 247101S00001 refers to State Uttar Pradesh (24), District Sitapur-II(71), Block Ailiya (01), school level registration (S) and serial number of registration 00001.

For your ready reference, the details of State, District and Block Codes allotted for all JNVs are enclosed. Please ensure that :

  1. No new block is to be added against any of the districts.
  2. Registration number is different from Examination Roll No. which should be allotted to each eligible candidate after the registration date is over.

A notification is to be published in leading newspapers in all states and Union Territories except the state of Tamil Nadu by the Regional Offices. A draft notification is enclosed.

Action taken in this regard is to be communicated to this office.

This issues with the approval of Competent Authority.

Yours faithfully,

Encl: As above
