Meghalaya government reviews PSC reform report, backs stringent transparency measures
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Shillong: The Meghalaya Cabinet on Tuesday examined the recommendations of the state Public Service Commission (PSC) reforms panel, which called for tighter safeguards and greater transparency in the recruitment process.

Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma said the report suggests a series of short, medium, and long-term measures to make the Meghalaya PSC more efficient and accountable.

Among the immediate steps proposed are strict confidentiality of question papers, CCTV installation during interviews, multiple interview boards, clear protocols, conflict-of-interest reviews, and asset declarations by PSC members.

It also recommends publishing candidate-to-vacancy ratios, releasing answer keys, and disclosing interview scores.

The committee further proposed creating a grievance redressal cell, ensuring unchanged roll numbers during the process, and addressing corruption under the Meghalaya Lokayukta Act, 2014.

Medium and long-term measures include shifting to computer-based tests, strengthening PSC cells in Jowai and Tura, merging exams with similar eligibility to avoid delays, and continuing optional papers in major competitive exams.

The Cabinet has supported interview recordings alongside CCTV monitoring as an added safeguard.

The move follows repeated allegations of nepotism, favouritism, and procedural lapses that have tarnished the PSC’s image.

Complaints have included irregular shortlisting and delays in recruitment. In one instance, over 600 candidates were called for the mains against 35 advertised posts after errors in the preliminary papers forced adjustments.

Sangma said the reforms panel was set up to restore public trust, modernise the commission, and ensure fairness in recruitment.
