DSSSB AE case studies

DSSSB AE · Put your knowledge to work in context.

The DSSSB Assistant Engineer (AE) credential refers to recruitment by the Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board, a body instituted by the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi. The Board states it was incorporated "with the purpose of recruiting capable, competent, highly skilled individuals by conducting written tests, professional tests and personal interviews wherever as desired." Candidates interested in engineering posts under Delhi government departments and local bodies should treat the AE as a post-specific recruitment route rather than a single fixed syllabus: the Board publishes Section A and Section B indicative syllabi, a combined examination scheme, and recruitment rules on its website, and each advertisement carries its own post code. The DSSSB AE case studies are 5 cases and about 3,862 words.

द्विभाषी कार्यालय आदेश की अनुवाद-जाँच

राजभाषा प्रकोष्ठ को परीक्षा केंद्र आवंटन तथा दस्तावेज़ सत्यापन के विषय में एक द्विभाषी कार्यालय आदेश जारी करना है। अंग्रेज़ी पाठ में लिखा है: 'Applications received after 31 March will not be accepted and candidates belonging to the Scheduled Caste category must upload the certificate by 5 p.m. on 10 April.' हिंदी अनुवाद में लिखा गया है: '31 मार्च को प्राप्त होने वाले आवेदन ही स्वीकार किए जाएँगे तथा अनुसूचित जनजाति वर्ग के अभ्यर्थियों को 10 अप्रैल सायं 5 बजे तक प्रमाण-पत्र अपलोड करना होगा।' इसी आदेश में एक स्थान पर 'अनुपालन रिपोर्ट' के लिए 'तामील रिपोर्ट' लिखा गया है, तथा दो स्थानों पर पदनाम 'सहायक अभियंता' और 'असिस्टेंट इंजीनियर' दोनों रूपों में प्रयुक्त हुआ है। अनुवादक का कहना है कि अर्थ में कोई अंतर नहीं है और यह केवल शब्द-चयन का प्रश्न है। सहायक अभियंता को दोनों पाठों की तुलना करके अंतिम प्रारूप तैयार करना है और यह भी स्पष्ट करना है कि किन त्रुटियों के आधार पर आदेश को चुनौती दी जा सकती है।.
