July 18, 2010 by TargetPG 87 Comments

After the results of Theory Part of General TNPSC has been released, there have been some confusion in the minds of the candidates We here present a short FAQ for the following 4 categories of candidates. In case you do not fall under any of these, please ask your questions. Before that lets get some basics right Please note that CML Seniority which is important for promotions depends on the Marks you score in the TNPSC Exam and not the date of joining. Yes. CML Seniority is not dependant on the date of joining. So a person selected by General TNPSC 2009 will be senior the person selected by Special TNPSC 2009 Within the Candidates selected by the Same Exam, the interse merit depends on your marks and your community rotation. To put things in right perspective, Candidate Selected by General TNPSC 2003 is senior to the one selected by General TNPSC 2005 Candidate Selected by General TNPSC 2005 is senior to the one selected by Special TNPSC 2007 Candidate Selected by Special TNPSC 2007 is senior to the one selected by General TNPSC 2009 Candidate Selected by General TNPSC 2009 is senior to the one selected by Special TNPSC 2009 Candidate Selected by Special TNPSC 2009 is senior to the one selected by next TNPSC, whether it is general or special.

Category 1 : I have been appointed under 10 A 1, I have already written the Special TNPSC in Nov 2009.
Question 1.1 : What will happen if I get selected by General TNPSC 2009 (Theory Conducted in Feb 2009 and Interview in Aug 2010) You will get the seniority of General TNPSC 2009 which will place you far ahead of those selected by Special TNPSC 2009 Question 1.1.1 : Will my services be regularized Yes. Your services will be regularized from the date of joining under 10 A 1. Yes. No doubt about it Question 1.1.2 : Some people are saying that if I am appointed under 10 A 1, I have to only get selected by Special TNPSC No. That is Wrong Question 1.1.3 : Why are they saying like that There could be two Reasons. One is that they are ignorant of the law. The second is that they are aware of the law, but want you to skip this exam so that you loose your seniority and thus they (or their relatives or friends) are benefited. Question 1.1.4 : Is special TNPSC not at all required for those who are appointed under 10 A 1

If the candidate, selected under 10 A 1 is able to get selected by a General TNPSC before the Special TNPSC, he gets appointed using the Merit List of that General TNPSC and hence, becomes senior and he is not required to appear for the Special TNPSC Special TNPSC is only for those who are not able to get selected in the General TNPSC. Question 1.1.5 : Is there any proof for this Check the appointment orders issued to those who were already appointed under 10 A 1 but subsequently got selected in General TNPSC 2005 Waiting List Question 1.1.6 : In case Orals for Special TNPSC 2009 are called for before the final merit list of General TNPSC 2009 is announced, what should I do Until the merit list of General TNPSC 2009 is announced, you are NOT Selected. So this question does not apply to you. Sorry but true. Please follow Question 1.2 Question 1.2 : What will happen if I dont get selected by General TNPSC 2009 (Theory Conducted in Feb 2009 and Interview in Aug 2010) You will have to appear for the Orals of Special TNPSC 2009. That will be a cake walk. In case of doubt, you can refer to the results of Special TNPSC 2007 J to cheer you up Question 1.2.1 : Will my services be regularized Yes. Your services will be regularized from the date of joining under 10 A 1. Yes. No doubt about it Question 1.2.2 : Does it mean that there is no difference as far as date of regularization of services whether I get selected by General TNPSC or not Yes. There will be no differences in the date of regularization Question 1.2.3 : Then what is the advantage of getting selected by General TNPSC If you get selected in General TNPSC, You move up in the CML Seniority. You will be promoted as Senior Civil Surgeon, JDHS or Dean earlier that your counterpart who could not clear General TNPSC, but got selected by Special TNPSC Question 1.2.4 : But what is the advantage of joining as 10 A 1 instead of waiting for Regular TNPSC.
