CHENNAI, DECEMBER 09, 2018 00:00 IST

Morale dipping after two-year wait: candidates

The declaration of results of the Group I examination by the Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission (TNPSC) has been delayed. While the Combined Civil Services I examination was notified on November 25, 2016, the results of the main examination are yet to be released, over two years on.

Candidates have requested the TNPSC to declare the results, alleging that the delay was causing a dip in the morale of thousands of candidates who have been working hard for the competitive examination.

The TNPSC notified the Combined Civil Services I examination (Group I) for filling up 29 vacancies in the post of Deputy Collector, 34 vacancies of Deputy Superintendent of Police, eight posts of Assistant Commissioner in Commercial Taxes Department, one post of District Registrar, five posts of District Employment Officer and eight posts of District Officer in Fire & Rescue Services.

Preliminary exam

The preliminary examination was held on February 19, 2017. A total of 1.37 lakh candidates appeared for the examination.

The number of applicants admitted to the Main written examination held on October 13, 14 and 15 in 2017 was more than 50 times the number of applicants to be recruited. Most of the 4,602 candidates who were shortlisted for the main examination have requested the TNPSC to quicken the process of declaration of results.
