Sir,
In the advertisement it was not mentioned that GATE score is compulsory. I had applied in June 2012 then I got mail to send GATE score. I replied back that I have not appeared for that. After that nothing has been heard from your side. You should inform rejected candidates also and on what basis they are rejected. Please don’t keep GATE as whole criteria.
Dear Friends,
We never will get this fellowship in our PhD life.Don’t apply for this fake fellowship.Because we can think that we have applied for this fellowship with research proposal and synapses, but this website is being said that this NEWS about the list of scholarships is still under construction.And this “construction” problem is from one and half year.Again they have given this notification without any progress for the last applications.
Dear Ravi, It is not fake. The website may not be updated. This is very promising fellowship scheme. We knew several scholars awarded this fellowship. They may not call all the applied candidates for interviews. They will short list candidates and communicate them about interviews.
Dear Sir,
I have applied for the JNMF 2011 in area environmental ecology and sustainable development but, till now i have not received any intimation letter or email for interview, kindly tell me when the results will be announced.
