Question
Consider the following statements: 1. For the
three All-India Services, there are 24 State cadres including three joint cadres. 2. Union Public Service Commission is the cadre controlling authority for Indian Administrative Service. 3. Staff Selection Commission is entrusted with the task of making recruitment to all the Group 'B' and Group 'C' posts under the Government. Which of these statements is/are correct?Solution
as Options given in the Question above are as per 2002 information which has been modified over the period of time. After being selected for the IAS, candidates are allocated to "Cadres." There is one cadre for each Indian State that is 21 Cadres in all, except for three joint cadres: Assam- Meghalaya, Manipur-Tripura, and Arunachal Pradesh Goa - Mizoram - Union Territories (AGMUT). Thus, statement 1 is not correct. The Constitution visualises the UPSC to be the 'watch-dog of merit system' in India. However UPSC is not concerned with the classification of services, pay and service conditions, cadre management, training, and so on. Thus, statement 2 is not correct. Staff Selection Commission is entrusted to make recruitment to All Group "B" posts in the various Ministries/Departments of the Govt. of India and their Attached and Subordinate Offices which are in the pay scales the maximum of which is Rs.10,500 or below and All non-technical Group "C" posts in the various Ministries/Departments of the Govt. of India and their Attached and Subordinate Offices, except those posts which are specifically exempt from the purview of the Staff Selection Commission. Hence NOT ALL jobs in Group B and C. Thus, statement 3 is not correct.
