HOW SERVICES ARE ALLOCATED
While allocating services to any category, many factors are taken into consideration. They are:
- The rank of the candidate in the CSE.
- Candidate’s order of preference for service.
- Candidate’s category like General, OBC, SC, ST, etc.
- Availability of vacancy in the candidate’s category.
- Findings of the Medical Board/Appellate Board with respect to the candidate.
- If a candidate does not give preferences for all the civil services, and he/she doesn’t get the services for which he/she had given preferences, then he/she will be considered for the remaining services where there are vacancies after the allocation to all the candidates, who could be allocated to cadres according to their preferences.
