Haryana opens CET registration for Group C posts, 14 lakh applications expected
After a three-year gap, the Haryana Staff Selection Commission (HSSC) has announced the Common Eligibility Test (CET) for Group C posts in various government departments across the state. The Haryana CET is a preliminary written examination conducted by the commission to select candidates for different government roles. According to a notification issued on Monday, online registration for CET Group C posts will take place from May 28 to June 12, with June 14 being the last date for fee submission. Once the registration process for Group C posts is completed, a separate notification will be issued for Group D posts. In the notification, the commission mentioned that the examination date will be communicated at a later stage. Approximately 14 lakh candidates are expected to apply for Group C posts, while nearly 17 lakh candidates are likely to apply for Group D posts. The Group C posts include various roles such as junior engineers, clerks, excise and taxation inspectors, auditors, assistant managers, patwaris, and male and female police constables, while Group D roles in Haryana include various entry-level positions in government departments, including peon, animal attendant, helper, gardener, cook and water carrier. HSSC Chairman Himmat Singh has already advised candidates to ensure their documents are prepared to avoid any registration issues. He also urged applicants to update their personal details, such as name, father's name, mother's name, date of birth, and mobile number in their Aadhaar Card and Parivar Pehchan Patra (PPP) if there are any discrepancies in official records. The CET score will remain valid for three years. However, if an applicant improves their score in a later attempt, the new validity period of three years will begin from the date of the result declaration of that attempt. Himmat Singh said that compared to previous years, 2024 saw the highest number of youths being provided employment, with 56,830 selections. According to Singh, recruitment numbers varied each year as follows: In 2015, recruitment was conducted for 2,780 posts; in 2016, for 2,229 posts; in 2017, for 8,403 posts; in 2018, for 20,141 posts; in 2019, for 34,649 posts; in 2020, for 8,694 posts; in 2021, for 3,651 posts; in 2022, for 16,366 posts; and in 2023, for 838 posts. Meanwhile, in a post on social media platform X, Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini said: 'I am pleased to share with you that the CET (Common Eligibility Test) will soon be conducted in the state, and all eligible candidates can apply online starting May 28. This examination brings a golden opportunity for thousands of young individuals in the state to secure employment.' Saini also said, 'Our government is working with complete dedication under the 'bina kharchi, bina parchi' (no bribery, no recommendation) policy and the 'mission merit' principle. We remain committed to providing jobs to Haryana's youth solely based on merit. The BJP government in the state stands firmly with the youth in all circumstances.'

IPL 2025, GT Vs LSG: Head-To-Head Stats, Probable XIs, Players To Watch, Weather Forecast & Ahmedabad Pitch Report
Last Updated: GT vs LSG, IPL 2025: Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants clash at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Gujarat Titans vs Lucknow Super Giants, IPL 2025: Table Toppers Gujarat Titans (MI) and eliminated Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) face off in the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Thursday (May 22). With 18 points from 12 matches, table-toppers GT have already booked their place in the playoffs. However, with Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings close behind on 17 points, the race for a top-two spot is still very much alive. LSG saw their playoff hopes dashed after a comprehensive defeat to Sunrisers Hyderabad earlier in the week. The Rishabh Pant-led side, now on a four-match losing streak, has endured a campaign riddled with inconsistency and injuries. There is no rain predicted in the run-up to the game, with the sky expected to be clear at the toss. The temperature will be just a shade under 40°C, with the evening being relatively cooler, according to Humidity will be around 38% with a slight breeze blowing from south-south-west. From the 10 T20 games played at the venue, teams batting first have had the upper hand, with six wins. The average score is around 160 in the first innings. In the last game played at the venue, GT smashed a record total of 224, and Sunrisers Hyderabad only managed to reach 186 in their 20 overs. LSG Impact Players: Himmat Singh, Shahbaz Ahamad, M Siddharth, Shardul Thakur, David Miller. Players to watch: Sai Sudharsan: The opening batter currently holds the Orange cap with 617 runs from 12 games and will surely look to stay ahead of his captain, Shubman Gill, who is the second on the list of highest run-getters. Rishabh Pant: With multiple failures with the bat, the LSG skipper will want to finally get a big score and prove his critics wrong, who have questioned his INR 27 core price tag.
