SSC Stenographer 2025 Question Paper (06-Aug-2025) Shift 2
The correct answer is
Refer to Chief Editor

To determine the correct course of action for Aditya's case, let's analyze the given criteria:

  1. Academic Marks: Aditya has 66% in MA English, which is below the required 68%.
  2. Experience and Team Management: Aditya has 9 years of experience with at least 4 years in academic content creation and has managed a team for 2 years. This satisfies the experience and management requirement.
  3. Research Publications: Aditya has published 3 academic research articles.
  4. Additional Degree: Aditya holds a B.Ed. degree.

Now, let's examine the special clauses:

  • If a candidate's academic marks are below 68%, but they have 3+ research papers and training certifications, the candidate should be referred to the Chief Editor.
  • In Aditya's case, although the academic percentage is below the required 68%, he fulfills the condition of having 3 research articles, even if training certification is not mentioned. Hence, referring to the Chief Editor based on the article count is the next logical step.

Therefore, the appropriate course of action is to Refer to Chief Editor, as Aditya meets the special clause conditions related to research publications, even though his academic percentage is below 68%.
