SSC proposes sliding scheme for recruitment to all advertised posts
Prayagraj: The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) is planning to introduce a major policy change in Combined Graduate Level (CGL) Exam 2025, one of its biggest recruitments.
For this, a proposal has been sent to the Central govt, and after approval, it will be implemented from this recruitment.
Under the new policy, the Commission will make appointments from the waiting list for the first time to ensure recruitment to all the advertised posts of Group 'B' and Group 'C' in various ministries, departments, organisations of the Central govt, and various constitutional bodies, statutory bodies, tribunals, etc.
However, instead of calling it a waiting list, the Commission has named it as a 'sliding scheme' wherein if those selected in the main list somehow fail to turn up, the candidates will be selected from the waiting list.
As per the policy of SSC, a waiting list/reserved list is not made in respect of recruitment examinations. It came to light from the last few recruitments that some vacancies remain vacant after document verification. Therefore, in an effort to fill all the advertised vacancies, the Commission is considering implementing a sliding scheme in the post allocation of a cycle to fill the vacant post from the extended cut-off after document verification.
Its implementation will be done on the approval of the Centre.
In another important development, f SSC has announced recruitment for two new posts in CGL 2025. This time there will also be selection for the post of office superintendent in the Central Board of Direct Taxes and Section Head in the Director General of Foreign Trade Office. Applications have been sought until July 4 for 14,582 posts. Last year, 36.73 lakh students filled the forms for the CGL exam.

‘Bird hit' grounds AI Express plane in Bangkok; may fly to Surat on Saturday
New Delhi/Surat: Passengers on two Surat-bound flights were forced to deboard on Friday due to technical issues. The affected flights were from Thailand to Surat and the one operating on the Jaipur–Bengaluru–Surat route. Air India Express Surat-Bangkok flight of Friday suffered a suspected bird arrival when it was about to land at its destination. The Boeing 737MAX landed safely and was grounded there. As a result, the aircraft could not operate the return Bangkok-Surat flight. "There were about 180 passengers who were supposed to fly to Surat. All guests were provided with hotel accommodation by the airline and gave them options including rescheduling to any other date or cancellation with full refund," said AI Express sources. The airline is flying engineering support and material on a flight to Bangkok. The aircraft is expected to take off from Bangkok on Saturday afternoon. Akash Mashruwala, a Surat-based professional returning from Bangkok, said, "We were made to sit inside the aircraft even as the ground crew worked to fix a technical issue. After an hour, the crew announced that we would have to deboard. We were told the issue would be resolved in a couple of hours, but we ended up waiting at the departure terminal for nearly six hours. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Memperdagangkan CFD Emas dengan salah satu spread terendah? IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Eventually, around 10pm, we were allotted hotel accommodation. A replacement flight has been scheduled for Saturday afternoon." A similar situation unfolded on Air India Express flight IX-2749, scheduled to arrive in Surat from Jaipur via Bengaluru. A passenger working with a private firm told TOI, "The same aircraft had already reported an AC failure on its incoming leg (IX-2768) but was still cleared for another journey." The flight, originally scheduled for 11:30 am, was first delayed due to a 'technical fault', and later further postponed to 5pm citing a runway closure at Jaipur from 2pm to 5pm. At 5pm, passengers were informed that the aircraft's engine needed to cool down after overheating. "As the cabin became unbearably hot and suffocating, with infants crying, several passengers demanded to deboard. Initially, the crew resisted, but eventually opened the gates when the situation worsened," he added. Follow more information on Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad here .

2 years on, garbage waiver charges on papers only in Panchkula
1 2 3 Panchkula: Residents have voiced strong concerns over the municipal corporation's failure to refund or adjust garbage collection charges that were officially waived by the Haryana government for the financial years 2023–24 and 2024–25. Despite the waiver, many residents had already paid the garbage tax as part of their property tax bills for 2024–25, expecting the excess amount to be adjusted in 2025–26 bills. However, to their disappointment, no such adjustment was made, and fresh bills were issued with new garbage tax charges included. The waiver for 2023–24 had been formally approved by the MC, and a second waiver for 2024–25 was announced ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. However, residents allege that the latter announcement remained only on paper, with no practical implementation. In a letter addressed to the authorities, the Citizens' Welfare Association (CWA), Panchkula, expressed frustration over the situation, stating that residents are being forced to pay the garbage collection fee again, while the previously paid amount remains unadjusted. The association highlighted that many residents had approached the MC and local representatives seeking clarity and resolution. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade Bitcoin & Ethereum – No Wallet Needed! IC Markets Start Now Undo According to residents, the MC has informed them that refunds or adjustments will only be considered after the new dues are paid. This policy has sparked widespread anger and confusion. CWA President SK Nayar criticised the approach, stating, "Forcing citizens to pay twice and then making them apply separately for refunds is unjust and disrespectful to honest taxpayers." Deepak Arora, a resident of Sector 12A, shared a similar experience, saying he was instructed to pay the new charges first and then apply for a refund. The CWA also pointed out that during his tenure, former speaker and MLA Gian Chand Gupta had publicly declared free door-to-door garbage collection in his official booklet, which has further fuelled residents' frustration. Residents are now urging the chief minister, the urban local bodies department, and the municipal commissioner to take immediate action. They are demanding that the excess charges be refunded without delay and that the practice of collecting advance garbage fees be halted until a transparent and citizen-friendly system is put in place.

Full rapid rail corridor to be ready this month, says NCRTC
Ghaziabad: In just about a month, the commute between Delhi and Meerut could be nearly as quick as a Gurgaon-Connaught Place metro ride. The NCR Transport Corporation (NCRTC) is set to achieve a milestone as the 82km rapid rail corridor it is building from Sarai Kale Khan to Meerut is on the cusp of full readiness. Officials confirmed that trains could run on the entire Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut corridor either by the end of this month or early July. A 55km of the section — from New Ashok Nagar to Meerut South — is already functional while trials on the remaining stretch and Meerut Metro, which is part of this section, will be complete this month. A clearance from the Commissioner of Metro Rail Safety (CMRS) is expected in a couple of weeks. Once that is done, it will pave the way for India's first semi-high speed mass transit corridor to become operational fully. "Technically speaking, rapid rail trains are already running on the entire 82km corridor. While the 55km section from New Ashok Nagar to Meerut South is operational, trial runs are progressing on the remaining stretch — 4.5km between Sarai Kale Khan and New Ashok Nagar in Delhi, and 23km between Meerut South and Modipuram. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pinga-Pinga e HBP?

According to the official, work on the metro corridor on the 27km stretch was almost over as well. "We are planning to present the complete stretch, including the Meerut Metro, for inauguration soon. We're on track to meet the June deadline. The final commissioning date, however, will rest with the ministry and higher authorities," the official said. It has taken six years for the corridor to start commercial operations since Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation stone for the project in March 2019. The project has seen systematic implementation since Oct 2023, when the 17km priority section from Sahibabad to Duhai began operations. Subsequently, a 17km stretch from Duhai to Modinagar North was commissioned in March 2023, followed by an 8km section from Modinagar North to Meerut South. Jan 2024 saw the commissioning of the 13km stretch between Sahibabad and New Ashok Nagar, bringing the operational length to 55km. "This expanding operational network has helped rapid rail trains achieve a milestone of over one crore ridership," the official added. Apart from the 55km section, there are three more stations beyond Meerut South — Shatabdi Nagar, Begumpul, and Modipuram. Follow more information on Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad here .
