Maharashtra MPSC Withdraws Assistant Director Of Languages Recruitment Advertisement Amid Changes In Administrative Rules

Mumbai: The Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) has called off the recruitment for the Assistant Director of Languages position, citing alterations in administrative rules. This move adds to a string of reversals in recruitment policies, fueling worries among prospective government employees. MPSC declared the withdrawal via an official bulletin.

The recruitment cycle has been terminated due to modifications in relevant administrative rules. The most recent move comes amidst broader apprehensions surrounding MPSC's recruitment protocols, with candidates facing cancellations and alterations at multiple stages of the selection process. In August, MPSC suspended the recruitment for Drug Inspector, Group B positions under the Food and Drug Administration Department following a preliminary police investigation into alleged irregularities in the screening exam held on March 22.

The commission opted for a new examination after the probe revealed a candidate had allegedly accessed the question paper prior to the test. Earlier in April, the state government withdrew its initial decision to recruit stenographers and typists through MPSC, leading to the cancellation of the planned examinations and eliciting criticism from aspirants who had been diligently preparing for the recruitment.

The discontinuation of the Assistant Director of Languages advertisement raises questions about the repercussions of administrative changes on recruitment timetables and the dedication of candidates who have invested time and resources in preparing for government examinations.
