Nashik: After the Supreme Court postponed the Maratha reservation, the Maharashtra Public Service Commission(MPSC) decided to stop the recruitment for 1,206 posts. It is understood that the Commission has sent a proposal to the general administration that the examination should be held soon in the interest of the students and now the proposal has been tabled before the Cabinet sub-committee of the state government.
The Maharashtra Public Service Commission will conduct State Service Examination, Engineering Service Complete Examination and Secondary Service Non-Gazetted Group B Joint Pre-Examination. The 1,206 posts will be filled from all over the state under these three examinations.
