27th BCS

The viva voce of the 27th BCS exams has recently been completed and the result will be published soon. A few days back a report carrying the news of vacant posts of the cadre service was published in DS. There has not been any recruitment in the cadre service, though almost three (03) years have passed after the circular of the 27th BCS was issued. On the other hand, there is shortage of manpower in the administration that creates problems in many sectors of the administration. Many can argue that if large scale recruitment is completed the quality will go down, but I don't believe that. All the candidates are from different universities. I'd like to give an example. In the 27th BCS a total 16,000 candidates participated and if 750 of them are declared qualified in the general cadre the quality will not go down. Recently, the Judicial Service Commission appointed 394 Assistant Judges.
I'd like to draw the attention of the authorities concerned to take the necessary steps to increase the number of posts for the 27th BCS, so that the previously successful & new candidates can be recruited.
