In what is seen as a New Year gift to lakhs of State government job aspirants, the Telangana State Public Service Commission (TSPSC) has notified recruitment to 796 posts, including 439 Group–II executive posts.

Posts vacant As per the notification hosted on the Commission’s portal, vacant posts include assistant commercial tax officers (110), sub inspector – prohibition and excise (220), executive officer of panchayat raj (67) and municipal commissioner (19), agricultural extension officers (311), among others.

The online registration for group–II applicants commenced today and will continue till February 9, while the written examination will be conducted on April 24-25.

The registration deadline for agricultural extension officers, however, is January 25.

In September this year, TSPSC released detailed scheme of examination and syllabus for the examinations and many aspirants are eagerly waiting for the notification.

Some candidates, however, are disappointed with the number of vacancies.

Heavy competition “The government has been maintaining that over 1 lakh vacancies will be filled up, since the formation of Telangana in June 2014.

“But vacancies are too discouraging as four to five lakh candidates are expected to compete for the posts,’’ said Mudi Suresh, a post-graduate student in Osmania University aspiring for a state government job.
