APPENDIX-I
Section-I
PLAN
OF EXAMINATION
The
competitive examination comprises two successive stages:
(i)
Civil Services (Preliminary) Examinations (Objective Type) for the selection of
candidates for Main Examination; and
(ii)
Civil Services (Main ) Examination (Written and
Interview) for the selection of candidates for the various services and posts.
2. The Preliminary Examination will consist of
two papers of Objective type (multiple choice questions) and carry a maximum
of 400 marks in the subjects set out in subsection (A) of Section-II. This
examination is meant to serve as a screening test only; the marks obtained in
the Preliminary Examination by the candidates who are declared qualified for admission
to the Main Examination will not be counted for determining their final order
of merit. The number of candidates to be admitted to the Main Examination will
be about twelve to thirteen times the total approximate number of vacancies to be
filled in the year in the various Services and Posts. Only those candidates who
are declared by the Commission to have qualified in the Preliminary Examination
in the year will be eligible for admission to the Main Examination of that year
provided they are otherwise eligible for admission to the Main Examination.
3.
Candidates who obtain such minimum qualifying marks in the written part of the
Main Examination as may be fixed by the Commission at their discretion, shall
be summoned by them for interview for a Personality Test vide sub-section ‘C’ of
Section-II. Marks obtained in the papers will be counted for ranking. The
number of candidates to be summoned for interview will be about twice the
number of vacancies to be filled.
Marks
thus obtained by the candidates in the Main Examination (written part as well
as interview) would determine their final ranking. Candidates will be allotted
to the various Services keeping in view their ranks in the examination and the preferences
expressed by them for the various Services and Posts.
