2011 candidates to get extra chance this yr

2011 candidates to get extra chance this yr

PTI  |  14th May 2015

New Delhi: Candidates who had appeared in the civil services examination in 2011 will get another chance this year. The move comes following an assurance given by the government in this regard last year.

"Those who had taken civil services examination in 2011 will be given an extra chance this year," a senior official in Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) said. The pattern of civil services (preliminary) examination was changed from 2011 onwards. Before that, Paper I used to be a general studies one and candidates were to choose an optional subject for Paper II.

Candidates are permitted six attempts, according to the notification by UPSC for civil services examination, 2014. A large group of students had in July last year protested against the pattern of civil services examination conducted by the Union Public Services Commission (UPSC). They had demanded change in Civil Services Aptitude Test (CSAT) of Paper II of civil services preliminary examination.

Following the protests, the government had decided that marks of the English section questions, asked in the paper, will not be included for gradation or merit. The change had come in force from civil services examination, 2014, onwards. "Candidates, who appeared in civil services examination 2011, may be given one more attempt in 2015," Union Minister Jitendra Singh had said in Parliament in August last year. 

A total of 4,72,290 candidates had applied for civil services preliminary examination 2011, out of which 2,43,003 had appeared. The civil services examination is conducted in three stages -- preliminary, main and interview -- to select candidates for prestigious Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Foreign Service (IFS) and Indian Police Service (IPS), among others. The results of civil services examination, 2014 are yet to be announced.

Mathrubhumi Online Desk  |  6th May 2015

New Delhi: The Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Youth Affairs and Sports Sarbananda Sonowal has said that Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports is implementing Urban Sports Infrastructure Scheme and  Scheme of Sports & Games for Persons with Disabilities.

Urban Sports Infrastructure Scheme (USIS) is being implemented on a pilot basis with effect from the year 2010-11. Under this scheme, 100% financial assistance, subject to prescribed limits, is provided to State Governments/ Union Territories for development of the synthetic playing surface (for hockey and athletics) and multipurpose indoor hall.

           

State Governments, Local Civic Bodies, Schools, Colleges and Universities under Central/State Governments; and Sports Control Boards are eligible to receive assistance for creation of sports infrastructure under this scheme.

 

The Scheme of Sports & Games for Persons with Disabilities for broad-basing of sports among differently-abled sportspersons by way  of conduct of training for community coaches, conduct of sports competitions and providing assistance to schools/institutes having differently-abled sportspersons on their rolls for procurement of sports equipment and engagement of coaches on contract basis.

 

In a written reply in the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday, Sonowal said, the Sports Authority of India (SAI), an autonomous body under the administrative control of the Ministry of Youth Affairs & Sports provides facilities and financial assistance to schools and colleges for promotion of sports under its various Sports Promotional Schemes.

 

He said, there is no provision for selection of blocks and villages in the country, including Uttar Pradesh, for grant of financial assistance for sports facilities for educational institutions under any of the above schemes. However, under the Rajiv Gandhi Khel Abhiyan, all 6545 blocks of the country are to be covered for creation of block level sports complex both for indoor and outdoor sports disciplines for which grants are released to States and Union Territories (UTs) in terms of the norms laid down under the Scheme.
