The Rajasthan government is going to reverse another decision of the previous Ashok Gehlot government, which may surprise the unemployed. It will be mandatory for the Rajasthan government to deposit the application form fee for re-examination. This decision of the government will affect 40 lakh unemployed people of Rajasthan.
In fact, the previous Ashok Gehlot government had laid down the one-time registration fee rule in the last year of its tenure. Candidates had to deposit the registration fee only once. Once the registration fee is deposited, candidates will not have to pay any additional fee to complete any recruitment test forms in the future.
Why is the one-time registration fee rule ending?
Now the present Bhajan Lal government is going to change this single registration fee rule of Gehlot government. A proposal to end it has been sent to the government. Because the Rajasthan Personnel Selection Board and the Rajasthan Public Service Commission (RPSC) say that the government is suffering huge losses due to this.
It costs Rs 600 per candidate.
Officials say that with this, even those candidates who do not want to take the exam fill the application form. The number of candidates filling the form is very less compared to the number of candidates appearing in the exam. It costs the government Rs 600 per candidate to conduct the exam. But 60 percent of the candidates do not appear for the exam. Government money is being wasted because of this.
Candidates will have to pay this fee.
As per the new rule, the reserved category will have to pay Rs 200 as examination fee and the general category will have to pay Rs 300 as examination fee. Staff selection board chairman Alok Raj says that even after applying, students do not come to take the exam. The government has made the exam application free, so candidates apply for many recruitments simultaneously but do not appear in the exam.
