Sukhu govt dissolves state staff selection commission

He said complaints were also received regarding the papers held recently by the HPSSC, headquartered in Hamirpur.
The ongoing recruitment process from HPSSC has been transferred to Himachal Pradesh Public Service Commission (HPPSC), Shimla, for the convenience of candidates till further alternative arrangements are made or a testing agency is constituted, Sukhu said while interacting with media persons.

All examinations would be conducted by HPPSC, he said and added that the employees of the Staff Selection Commission have been transferred to the “surplus” pool and options will be given to them to join new departments of their choice. The inquiry report said the involvement of many officials from top to bottom was found in the paper leak scams and other irregularities committed during the past three years and the first charge-sheet in this case would be filed on Tuesday, according to Sukhu. Directions have been given to the vigilance department to take strict action against the people involved in illegal activities, he said.
