BPSC 53-55th result: The waiting will soon be over

CLICK HERE FOR PATNA HIGH  COURT ORDER ON 53-55TH RESULT

Patna High Court Order on BPSC 53-55th result: On 28-02-2013 honorable Justice Mihir Kumar Jha issued notice to BPSC and Bihar government on Bihar Audit Service. Some students have challenged against adding 100 Lekhadhikari post in this vacancy. According to the petitioner examination of state civil services and Audit service are different. They also say that no advertisement were advertised for Lekhadhikari post. So without advertisement BPSC can not recruit candidates. Honorable justice ordered that fate of 53-55th mains examination result will depend on this petition. State government has to respond within a week. Now wait one more week for this case result.
Creation of Circle Officer post and cabinet decision: Bihar Cabinet today (26-02-2013) gave green signal to the creation of Posts of 'Anchaladhikari' (Bihar Revenue Service). This decision was taken in Today's Cabinet meeting chaired by Bihar Chief Minister. However it is not clear, whether these posts will be added in current examination or in next advertisement. But chances are that State government will not wait three more years for these crucial posts. Hence it might be added this year. Some confusions are still there. For example, what is the meaning of 'creation of Anchaladhikari' post, when post is already there? Everything will be clear in a few days.
I had said in my one of the posts that "Patience is youth treasury, but making them patient on the name of patience is tragedy." In the BPSC 53-55th case, it is quite implicit that how a constitutional body like BPSC is testing the patience of poor unemployed youths of Bihar. Almost 9 months have passed, result has not been declared so far. UPSC declared the result within 3 months, JPSC declared in 3 months. Nobody knows why BPSC is delaying the result. Now everybody is guessing that it will be declared latest by 15th March. That is not far too away. But out of 13000, only 3000-3500 will get chance of personality test. Rest 10000 will get nothing in this waiting. Such is the state of affairs of BPSC. I am not pessimistic, neither I am making you pessimistic, but who can guarantee that everything will be fine  in the coming result. And who can guarantee that BPSC will not repeat it's mistake, as it did in 48-52nd examination. I was going through the marks of first 200 students who appeared in the 48-52 mains examination. What I found, was astonishing. None (except 3 to 4 students) of those first 200 students got more than 690 marks, except those who had opted Anthropology, Philosophy and Farsi. Even scoring 660 marks was tough last year, if your optional were not from these three optional. On the contrary, due to one of these three optional papers, candidates made their place in the interview list. Will BPSC except it's fault? Not at all. Anyway that was last examination. You may ask that why I am giving these facts at the time of result. Well, it has some positive implications, that is why I gave all these analysis. 

Above analysis clearly shows that even scoring 670 marks in the mains examination is tough, if marks are not awarded blindly in a few subjects. Although BPSC history says that some subjects always outperform rest of the subjects alternatively, yet one should not loose hope seeing the number of record posts. Don't forget that BPSC will not follow moderation or scaling in this examination. Hence if one or two subjects score comparatively better, it will not be surprising. But at the same time, one can accept that last year, which was not mere mistake but was a clear case of negligence where 179 marks were awarded in Anthropology and Philosophy, will not be repeated. 

Currently, number of posts are 1106. Vigilance DySP posts will be added in a few days after some corrections in the minimum age requirement. As far as Bihar Revenue Service Posts are concerned, it is quite clear that Bihar government Land and Revenue department has committed mistake. Bihar Revenue Service rule clearly say that Circle Inspector posts will be filled by Commission. In the rule commission has been defined as Bihar Public Service Commission. Hence these posts are to filled by BPSC and not by BSSC. If this correction is not amended, then one can move court. However, there is a buzz that the state government has amended its rule, some posts of Circle Officer will be filled by BPSC directly. Since CI recruited by BSSC will take 15 years to become CO, it is tough for government to function without officers. It means, one can expect addition of CO posts in current vacancy.

Now as far as cut off is concerned, if last examination mistakes are not repeated then one can expect interview call if one has scored 670 marks in general category. As I said earlier, that two subjects alternatively performs better, this year can not be a exception. But last examination was exceptional case. It is better to forget that and move ahead. This year, it is not easy to score even 670 marks. Hence, despite some subjects do better, cut off will not, I hope so, cross 680 marks. Although you can say that there is nothing new in this post, but now only you can expect something new from BPSC. It is matter of two weeks, keep praying for the best.
