Bengaluru: BJP MLA S Suresh Kumar was enraged by the workings of Karnataka Public Service Commission (KPSC) and lashed out on the recruitment agency for delaying the announcement of results. It is unhealthy for the KPSC to keep constantly failing in fulfilling their responsibilities, Kumar said.

The exams to recruit KAS officers were held in February 2021 and the results are yet to be announced, he said. “It is unhealthy for the KPSC to repeatedly fail in fulfilling its responsibilities,” Kumar said in a statement.

“It is unbecoming of any institute to make candidates wait for 17 months for the results. The administrative system requires candidates who have lost their enthusiasm, rather than those who have lost their interest in civil services by waiting long for their results” he added.

He also recalled meeting KPSC officials over a month ago, the former minister said that the officials had assured him of releasing the 1:3 list for KAS interview rounds- ahead of the final selection of candidates by July 10. “I was recently informed that the results were delayed as the official concerned (with announcing the list) was infected with Covid-19” Kumar said.

Results such as motor vehicle inspectors, first division assistants, and drawing teachers are out, while several others, including second division assistants and junior engineers are yet to be announced.

“KPSC needs to understand the struggles of various candidates at least now and announce 1:3 list of KAS and results of other exams,” he said.
