The Estimates Committee of Parliament in its 47th Report (1967-68) recommended

interim measure, an Examination Wing was added to the Institute of Secretariat

Training andManagementof Governmentof India.

at the Centre and in the States belonged to Class III and Class IV categories.

Referring to the identical nature of qualifications stipulated for entry into such posts

in various offices, the ARC advocated pooling of the requirements of the non-

technical posts by different departments and selection of personnel either by joint

recruitment or through a Recruitment Board. After careful consideration of this

recommendation, the Government of India decided to constitute the Subordinate

Services Commission vide Resolution No. 46/1/(S)/74-Estt. 'B' dated the 4th

November, 1975 (Appendix-I) of Department of Personnel and Administrative

Reforms.

2.1(B) A Commission called Subordinate Services Commission was constituted which

was subsequently re-designated as Staff Selection Commission (SSC) on 26th

September, 1977 to make recruitment to Class III (now Group 'C') non-technical

posts in the various Ministries/Departments of the Government of India and their

credit cards/debit cards in case of online applications without any financial loss to

the exchequer is pending with the Controller General of Accounts for the past 18

CHAPTER-III

THE YEAR 2010-2011 IN RETROSPECT

3.1 2010-11 was a path breaking year in the history of Staff Selection Commission.

Effective steps taken in previous year started showing results during 2010-11.

23658 (23187 Open + 471 Selection Posts) candidates were selected from all

India Examinations against vacancies in different grades reported by various

Ministries, Departments, attached and subordinate offices as against 10249

candidates selected in 2009-10. 5952671 candidates applied in response to

notices issued for All India Open Examinations. Compared to 288161 women

candidates who applied in 2009-10, the number of female candidates who

applied in 2010-11 rose to 1075015. Processing of the large number of

applications would not have been possible with the limited manpower had

initiative not been taken to introduce automation and modern technology in the

previous year. The Combined Graduate Level Examination, 2010 was conducted

in revised format which resulted in economy of time and expenditure and led to

finalization of results within 12 months from the date of notification of the

examination despite three-fold increase in number of applicants. Introduction of

multiple-choice objective type question papers and OMR based answer sheets

contributed to completion of the examination cycle in the least possible time. The

Commission has now reached a position where it is possible to achieve its

objective of declaration of results of singlestage, two-stage and multiplestage

examinations in 6 to 9, 9 to 12, and 12 to 15 months respectively.

3.2 Facility of online applications introduced by the Commission in January, 2010 was

well accepted by the candidates both in rural and urban areas. The number of

candidates who apply online is increasing steadily and has already reached about

40% of the total applications. Besides being simple and time saving, this has

18


21/112



resulted in considerable reduction in data processing cost for the Commission and

postage etc. for the applicants. However, Commission's effort to obtain approval of

Controller General of Accounts to allow credit / debit cards for payment of fee,

without any reduction in fee transferred in the account of SSC has not met withsuccess. Use of credit/debit cards for payment, without any financial loss for the

Commission, will lead to increased use of online applications and further decrease

the timetaken in the recruitment cycle.

3.3 The schedule of examinations to beconducted by the Commission during the year

wascarefully planned andall examinations held on schedule. It is worth mentioning

that in addition to regular examinations conducted by SSC, the following

examinations wereconducted on consultancybasis :-

1. Recruitment of Inspector (Prosecution) and Sub Inspector (Prosecution) inRailway ProtectionForce under Ministry of Railways.

2. Recruitment ofAssistant Sub Inspector inCISF.

3.4 The credibility of Staff Selection Commission reached such a level that other

organizations, despite having their own recruitment agencies, approached

Government and Staff Selection Commission for recruitment through Staff

Selection Commission. Railway Board made specific request seeking help of Staff

Selection Commission in selecting candidates for the post of Inspector

(Prosecution) and Sub Inspector (Prosecution) in Railway Protection Force. TheCommission, with the approval of DOPT conducted the written examination,

evaluated answer sheets and prepared the list of candidates selected. The

recruitment of Assistant Sub-Inspector in CISF was taken up on turnkey basis

fromadvertisementto final result.

3.5 On the request of Ministry of Home Affairs, notification for Recruitment of

Constable (GD) in CISF, CRPF, SSB, ITBP, BSF andRifleman(GD) in Assam Rifles

was done in the last quarter of the year 2010-11 with publication of notice in

February, 2011 and scheduling of the examination in May and June, 2011.

Though this project was not within the mandate of the Commission, the

Commission accepted the responsibility in public interest, to fill about 52,000

vacancies (since increased to 90,000) in aggregate which gave an opportunity to

a very large section of unemployed youth all over the country to seek to serve in

Central ParamilitaryForces.

19


22/112



3.6. Moving towards sharing more and more information with stakeholders,

Commission's decision to post marks of qualifying and non-qualifying candidates

on its website resulted in greater transparency and interaction between the

candidates and the Commission which led to boost in candidates' confidence inCommission's functioning apart from offering a quality check on the work of the

Commission.

3.7 The year was also a trend setter for the Commission with considerably large

participation of youth of the country in the Examinations conducted by the

Commission. In Combined Higher Secondary Level Examination-2010 alone,

over 16 lakh candidates were registered. More importantly the large number of

job applicants was handled in a very smooth manner inspite of constraints of

existing manpower and infrastructure. Commission used Government andprivate educational institutions as venues for various examinations and most of

the manpower engaged in the actual conduct of the examinations like

invigilators, centre supervisors, etc. were sourced from such institutions and

from among eligible Government employees. As accommodating such large

number of candidates in one shift is not possible due to limited infrastructure and

manpower availability, the examinations were conducted in 2-3 shifts spread

over one or two days with separate question papers set for each shift. The

Commission, with the help of experts, strived to set question papers of

comparable difficulty level to provide for a level playing field for thecandidates.

3.8 Ensuring compliance with the objective of conducting all examinations in a fair

and transparent manner, the Commission took additional measures to ensure

that no attempt was made by any candidate to use any any unfair means. If found

defaulting, deterrent action was taken against him. Measures taken included

deputing flying squads from the Commission's Headquarters to select

examination centres conducting various examinations. As a result of such

measures, the examinations of the Commission were conducted in a smooth, fairand transparent manner.

3.9 The website of the Commission (http://ssc.nic.in), revamped and inaugurated in

October, 2009, is the single window through which information is provided to the

applicants about schedules, examination notices, results, marks, etc. It is very

20


23/112



popular among candidates and as on 31.7.2011 has attracted over one crore hits,

indicating its evergrowing popularity. It has consistently been ranked by different

webhosts between 20000-30000 throughout the year and as on 31.7.2011 is

ranked around 20,000 in theworld.

3.10 The Commission's decision to utilize http://twitter.com, mainly a social networking

site, as a forum of interaction has been appreciated by the candidate population

which provides them an opportunity of giving feedback directly to the Commission,

which in turn has been utilized for refining the examination processes and

procedures.

3.11 Computer Proficiency Test was introduced in the Combined Graduate Level

Examination, 2010 for the first time. Entire test was designed and developed in

house and it was heartening to see high levels of proficiency in majority of the

candidates. About 75% of the candidates selected from All India Open

Examinations in 2010-11 possessed basic skills of working on the computer, which

will augur well for total e-governance in the country.

3.12 The Commission, for the first time, organized the Multi Tasking Staff (Non-

Technical) Examination during the year, which was smoothly held all over the

countrydespite large numberof applications -1615201.

3.12(i)5952671 applications were received during 2010-11 for the 12 All India Open

Examinationsheld.

3.12(ii) Results of 08 open examinations held either in the previous year or during the year

were declared and a total of 23187 candidates were recommended for

appointment. 471 candidates were recommended for appointments through

Selection method.

3.13 The Commission takes note of socio-economic milieu of its candidates and tries to

reach the candidates by opening centres of examinations easily accessible to the

candidates. The examination centres are located at places that have large

concentration of candidates and are well connected through Rail / Road so thatcandidates from far off rural areas have no problem in appearing in the

examinations. During the year 2010-11, a network of 108 examination centres,

consisting of 1418 examination venues, spread throughout the length and breadth

of the country, was utilized by the Commission. Taking into consideration the

difficult terrainetc, thereare 2 examination centres inJammu andKashmir and 27 in

the North-East beside one centre in Port Blair (A&N Islands). The location of

examination centres is reviewed continuously and new centres are added as and

whenfeltnecessary.

3.14 TheCommission follows a broad-based approach to recruitment, with the view thatproper evaluation of knowledge, aptitude and skill test are essential for successful

performance ineach job. Indoing so, followingarekept inview:-

i) It is to be ensured that the tools adopted for selection have high degree of

reliabilityand validity;

ii) The system of recruitment should be in conformity with the national policies,

socio-cultural and economic objectives,and meet the organizationalneeds;

and

iii) The selectionsystem isdevisedfor speedyadministrationatoptimal cost.

3.15 In order to ensure that the quotas reserved for SC/ST/OBC candidates are filled up

to the required extent and SC/ST/OBC candidates take advantage of SSC

Examinations, the following steps weretaken:

i) The Commissionensured that there was a widedissemination of information

regarding various recruitments by publishing 39 advertisements in theEmploymentNews andRegional Newspapers with wide circulations.

ii) Examination centres were opened in areas having concentration of SC/ST

population. A Sub-Regional office of the Commission is also located at

Raipur, a belt predominately inhabited by tribal population. These steps

were devised to encourage and assist the reserved category candidates to

come forward and compete with others belonging to urban and semi-urban

areas. The details of SC, ST and OBC candidates nominated in the open

competitive examinations duringtheyear is available in chapter IV.

iii) During 2010-11,3419, 1904and 7629( total 12952)candidates belonging to

SC, ST and OBC categories respectively were recommended for

appointment against open recruitment. This is 55.85 % of the total

recommended for appointment.

Likewise, against Selection Posts 63, 33 and 112 (total 208) candidates

belonging to SC, ST and OBC categories respectively were recommended

for appointment. This is 44.16% of the total candidates recommended for

appointment.

3.16 While placing requisition with the Commission, the indenting Departments are

required to indicate the number of vacancies exclusively reserved for Physically

Handicapped. In order to ensure that the vacancies reserved for them are filled to

the maximum extent, the Commission has decentralized the processing of their

applications at Regional/Sub-Regional level and delegated powers to the Regional

Directors/Sub-Regional Deputy Directors so that bottlenecks in getting medical

clearance/certificates regarding the extent of physical disability are removed andclearance obtained at the earliest. Furthermore, close monitoring is done by the

Commission at the Headquarters to ensure that the eligible candidates are

nominated against the vacancies identified/notified for this category, at the earliest

and all the posts reserved for physically handicapped are filled to the extent of

availability.

3.17

TheCommission allowedfeeexemption to women candidatescutting across all thecategories with effect from 21.7.2009 to motivate them to participate in

examinations conducted. Out of total applicants , 28.42% were

women candidates.Participation of women candidates has increased from 24.46%

STRENGTHENINGOF EXAMINATIONADMINISTRATION

STRUCTUREDPERSONALITYTEST

3.18 Due to qualitative change in the nature and composition of the clientele of the

Commission, the main concern of the Commission is to conduct the examinations

successfully, on schedule and free from incidents at all the centres. Since the

number of posts available is limited, the competition has become fierce sometimes

to display and use of unfair means for personal achievements. The

Commission has been making concerted effort to see that such unhealthy

practices are nipped in the bud. The system of appointing Invigilators, Supervisors

and Inspecting Officers for the venues of the examinations has been strengthened.

All information/complaints received regarding adoption of any unfair means is

promptly looked into, investigated and brought to its logical end and stringent

action taken against the wrong doers wherever required. Commission not only

cancels the candidature of such candidates but also debars them from its futureexaminations. Inspecting officers drawn from other CentralGovernment offices are

also positioned in all venues and their reports analyzed for taking corrective action.

The number of Inspecting Officers per venue was increased to two, wherever

feasible during the year. Placing of scanned photographs and signatures of the

candidates on the admission certificates is a recent innovative measure and has

been successful. As a result of stepping up vigilance, strengthening of supervision,

specializedscreening of handwriting of doubtful cases by the office of the Examiner

of Questioned Documents and requisite help from the State Governments and

District Administration, salutary effects have been noticeable in holding of free andfair examinations. During 2010-11, the Commission started despatching flying

squads from its headquarters and also introduced standard seating arrangements

and distribution of question papers and answer sheets/booklets with the same

serial numbers to each candidate. Analysis of performance of candidates was also

done selectivelyto assess theextent of conformity with Commission's instructions.

3.19 For evaluating the personality traits of the candidates appearing for some of the

recruitment examinations where the incumbents to the posts are more likely tocome into contact with the public or are required to display special characteristics

such as integrity and creativity, the Commission has made special efforts to ensure

that prejudice and bias do not colour the assessment of the individual's personality

traits. Notable among them are posts such as Inspectors of Income Tax/Central

Excise and Sub Inspectorsof CBI andother CentralPolice Organisations likeCRPF,

leading

27


30/112



CISF, BSF, ITBP etc. The candidates called for interview/personality test are

informed well in advance through interview call letters about the scope of such

interview in broad terms in order to provide them an opportunity to prepare

properly. The interview schedule for Open Examinations is also placed on theCommission's website for information of the candidates. Selection of experts and

advisors with appropriate and requisite professional qualifications and expertise in

the relevant field continues to be emphasized. Uniformity of approach among

various interview boards for the same category of posts and objectivity for different

categories of posts have been ensured by introducing structured personality test.

Moreover, theCommission keeps reviewing these guidelines on regular basis so as

to ensure that they meet the test of time and judicial scrutiny. With a view to bring

about further uniformity in the appraisal of candidates during the personality test,

the Commission refined the guidelines further on award of marks during the year

under report and also introduced random allocation of candidates to different

boardsandshuffling of expertsandadvisers.

3.20 Wherever it is noticed that the recruitment rules are rigid and unrealistic or have

become redundant due to stipulation of unreasonably high educational

qualification, the Commission suggests necessary amendments in the rules so as

to attract the best available talent. Commission has also been suggesting

amalgamation, rationalization and clubbing of posts which are similar, if notidentical, in pay scales and other service conditions. The Commission also

suggests to indenting departments to simplify the essential qualification clause in

the respective recruitment rules in order to make the selection process more

practicable and remove anomalies or unnecessary complications or ambiguity in

the essential qualification requirements, vagueness in experience clause, length of

serviceetc.

3.21 For evaluation of answer scripts of objective type Question Papers, Optical MarkReading System (OMR) is being used by the Staff Selection Commission in all its

examinations. During 2010-11 evaluation of scripts of objective type Question

Papers was done on OMR system in all major examinations. In this system,

responses toquestions are immediately andaccurately captured and time taken for

processing of results is reduced. Though short of officers qualified to perform such

analysis, the Commission initiated the process of item analysis in objective type

question papers to provide post validation of individual questions and, therefore,

the role ofquestionpapers in the entireselection process.

3.22 (i) The Staff Selection Commission has developed a Question Bank which

contains objective type questions for use in examinations conducted by the

Commission. For replenishing the Question Bank and to facilitate selection

of good quality and standard questions, the Commission organizes

Testing Techniques are invited from various Universities/ Institutions to

participate. Commission also nominates eminent Education Specialists in

therespective fields as Resource Faculty forsuchWorkshops.

(iii) In the Phase I of the Workshop, Item Writers are introduced to the principles

of objective testing and techniques for writing good quality questions. Item-

writing exercise is conducted and group discussion held in the light of

general guidelines issued by the Commission. Queries raised by theparticipantsareclarified by Resource Faculty.

(iv) In the two-day Phase II of the Workshop which follows after two months,

group validation of question items submitted by the Item Writers takes

place. The process includes scrutiny of each question regarding its

thematic contents, language, grammar, difficulty level, responses and time

taken etc. The Resource Persons and Senior Officers of the SSC (HQ) and

Regional Office of Staff Selection Commission supervise the group exercise

andother workshopactivities.

3.23 A conference of Regional Directors /Deputy Regional Directors is held generally

once every year to discuss operational problems and implementation of policy

decisions of the Commission. The basic objective of holding the conference is to

discuss intensively operation related problems and policy issues governing the

recruitment and selection processes adopted by the Staff Selection Commission.

by the Commission, through the selection method. Such vacancies generally

small in number and qualifications for such posts vary from Department to

Department.

Posts, isany of the following:

i) Selection through short-listing of candidates on the basis of percentage of

marks obtained in the essential educational qualification followed by

interview.

vii) Interview for Selection Posts where there are sufficient candidates from

different regions are conducted at different Regional Headquarters for the

convenience of candidates.

5.3. Inorder toselect right candidates for the right job keeping inview job requirements,the Staff Selection Commission had made the interview process more effective by

structuring it in such a way that proper and scientific assessment of the candidates

is made by judging academic qualification, knowledge of the subject studied,

personality, and aptitude and suitability for the post. The interview procedure has

been further streamlined with a view to make it more objective. To rule out any bias

in interviews, the Commission has decided not to disclose the category of the

candidates to the Interview Board. During the year, Common Screening Tests were

extensivelyusedto shortlist candidates for interviews in order to reduce processing

timeandto fill up thevacancies quickly.

CHAPTER-VI

EXAMINATION CENTRES

There were only 19 examination centres when the Commission started functioning in July,

1976. Since then, the number of examination centres has increased considerably. Duringthe year 108 examination centres having 1418 venues were utilized. The Commission has

an impressive network of centres throughout the length and breadth of the country.

Location of these examination centres is guidedby a varietyof considerations, including

i) Socio-Economic background of the majority candidates appearing in the

Commission's examination.

ii) Accessibility, remotenessanddifficult terrain.

iii) Proximity of offices of sister recruiting agencies and organisations in general

and assurances of facilities by State Governments and Public Service

Commissions in particular for the orderly and smooth conduct of

Commission's examinations.
