Sponsoring of candidates by the Staff Selection Commission

(1) The Commission shall sponsor exactly the same number of candidates as the total number of vacancies notified with it. The names of such candidates shall be arranged in the order of merit. (2) In the list of sponsored candidates, those claiming the reserved vacancies shall not exceed the number of vacancies reserved for that category and notified in the recruitment advertisement. However, if enough suitable women candidates are not available, the shortfall can be made up by increasing correspondingly the men candidates of that category. (3) There shall be no reserved or waiting list.
