KEA seeks KPSC-model powers for various government recruitments
The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) is requesting government approval to adopt a centralized recruitment model similar to the Karnataka Public Service Commission (KPSC). This change aims to prevent the inefficiency of candidates applying for multiple posts simultaneously and the resulting waste of administrative resources.
Why it matters
Streamlining government recruitment processes is essential for improving administrative efficiency and reducing the burden on public sector hiring departments.
The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) has written to the government seeking permission to conduct a single examination simultaneously for posts of different departments of the same cadre, conduct document verification based on the model of Karnataka Public Service Commission (KPSC), and prepare a selection list.
The objective of KEA is to prevent candidates from applying multiple times for posts of the same cadre (mostly Second Division Assistant (SDA), First Division Assistant (FDA) and parallel posts) in different departments, participating in document verification and the same candidates being selected in all departments.
