Rajasthan public service body to have 10 members; early promotions facilitated
The Rajasthan Cabinet on Monday (July 14, 2025) decided to increase the number of members in the State Public Service Commission from the present seven to 10 and facilitate early promotions of government employees. The changes in the service rules will relax the desired experience by two years for the promotions. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Jogaram Patel said here after the Cabinet meeting that the creation of three more posts in the RPSC would enhance its efficiency and ensure a 'smooth and effective' functioning. The RPSC (Conditions of Service) Regulations, 1974, will be amended for the purpose. The demand for reconstituting the RPSC has been raised several times and questions have been raised on its credibility following the continuous incidents of paper leaks in the recruitment exams. The Bharatiya Janata Party government has recently appointed former Director General of Police Utkal Ranjan Sahoo as the Commission's chairperson. Mr. Patel said the State Cabinet had decided to give relaxation of two years in the desired experience or service period for giving promotions to the government employees in 2025-26. 'The relaxation will be given to the personnel who have not claimed it during the last two years, but no employee will be eligible [for it] during the probation period,' he said. Mr. Patel was accompanied by Deputy Chief Minister Prem Chand Bairwa and Food & Civil Supplies Minister Sumit Godara at the press conference. The three Ministers announced several decisions of the Cabinet pertaining to new policies in different sectors, evolving Rajasthan as a global medical tourism hub, career advancement scheme for university teachers, and attracting investments to the energy sector. The State Cabinet approved the draft medical value travel policy, which would help establish the State as an 'accessible, cost-effective and reliable' destination. Mr. Patel said the policy would promote economic growth, employment generation, and global branding by integrating the health and tourism sectors. The new township policy, the city gas distribution policy and a proposal to establish three joint venture companies in the energy sector were approved at the Cabinet meeting. Mr. Patel said an amendment in the integrated clean energy policy-2024, approved by the Cabinet, would enable the investors to get the land for their projects, for which they signed MoUs in the Rising Rajasthan global investment summit, on easy terms.
