Public service commissions in India are responsible for conducting civil service exams and recruiting civil servants in various states and at the national level. There are three types of public service commissions in India: the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC), the State Public Service Commission (SPSC), and the Joint Public Service Commission (JPSC).
The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) is a central government agency responsible for recruiting civil servants at the national level. It conducts the prestigious civil service exams known as the Civil Services Exam and the Indian Forest Service Exam, as well as other exams for recruitment to various government jobs at the national level.
The State Public Service Commission (SPSC) is responsible for recruiting civil servants at the state level. Each state in India has its own SPSC, which conducts exams for recruitment to various government jobs within the state.
The Joint Public Service Commission (JPSC) is a commission that serves two or more states. It conducts exams for recruitment to various government jobs in the participating states.
All of these commissions follow a similar recruitment process, which includes conducting written exams, interviews, and medical examinations to select candidates for government jobs. The selection of candidates is based on merit and qualifications.
