“So far as we’re involved, quite a lot of adjustments are required within the primary construction of the examinations. You can not discover a higher day than at this time for the adjustments, as the federal government has modified after 10 years,” he instructed reporters.
“There are quite a lot of vacancies. However your complete TNPSC ecosystem can recruit a most of 10,000 individuals in better of occasions. Right this moment’s backlog is round 30,000 and it’ll take one other two or three years for the TNPSC to recruit them. That’s the reason we now have relaxed the age restrict of staff for 2 years,” he defined.

Requested whether or not standardisation would resolve the issue since every division’s requirement was completely different, Mr. Thiaga Rajan stated he had not taken any resolution.
“It’s for the Chief Minister to resolve. I don’t wish to go too far forward of myself,” he added.

It’s not as if we’re already choosing up solely specialists. There’s a picture. However the reality is much from the fact. What you scored 30 years in the past alone just isn’t sufficient. Coaching can equip a candidate with required qualification. Marks scored within the TNPSC examination alone couldn’t be thought of as benefit,” he stated.
When instructed {that a} part of English medium college students had been planning to method the court docket in opposition to making Tamil obligatory for TNPSC examinations, Mr. Thiaga Rajan stated it was a person’s proper to take action.
“However we don’t anticipate a candidate to own information of a Ph.D scholar in Tamil language. A candidate ought to have the information of tenth customary Tamil with 40 per cent marks within the examination. It’s a delicate subject and we aren’t doing it for sloganeering,” he identified.
