More than five lakh applicants will have to wait longer for Group C jobs, as the Haryana Staff Selection Commission (HSSC) has cancelled the selection process and decided to call applications afresh.
This is because the state government has revised the selection criterion, dispensing with interview for recruitment in Group C and D posts, sources say.
As per the new criterion, the selection will be on the basis of a written exam, and applicants’ experience and socio-economic background.
Sources said the HSSC was to hold written tests for more than 8,000 Group C posts as per the old criterion and the dates for the tests were yet to be announced.
The posts included about 2,000 in Skill Development and Industrial Training Department, 600 in Health, 1,000 in Irrigation, 500 in Panchayat, 600 in police and 2,000 in Public Health Engineering.
The HSSC Chairman, Bharat Bhushan Bharti, said those who had already paid the fees would not have to pay it again and nor would they be considered overage. “Earlier, the applications were invited on the basis of the old criterion. So, it was necessary to cancel the process and seek applications afresh.”
The HSSC was recently in the news after Chief Minister’s flying squad arrested five of its employees for allegedly duping candidates by demanding money for jobs.
The commission is also in the process to fill 7,000 posts in the Haryana Police and 34,000 posts of Group D.
