About Assam Public Service Commission

The Assam Public Service Commission (APSC) is a constitutional body that plays a vital role in the recruitment process for government jobs in the state of Assam. For decades, it has been the primary agency responsible for conducting examinations and making appointments for various posts under the Government of Assam, fulfilling a key mandate for fair and merit-based public sector careers. Aspiring candidates preparing for state-level examinations often look for Assam Public Service Commission recruitment notifications to secure stable and prestigious positions.

Organizational Evolution

The composition of the Commission has undergone significant evolution since its inception, reflecting its growing role in public administration and employment. In 1937-1951, the Commission consisted of one Chairman and two Members. This structure was adjusted to one Chairman and two or three Members during the period from 1951 to 1986. The need for a larger framework led to an increase to one Chairman and six Members from 1986 to 1991, followed by a further expansion to one Chairman and ten Members in 1991. By an amendment in 2005, the strength of the Commission was formally fixed at seven, comprising one Chairman and six Members. This defined structure ensures efficient functioning in processing the latest sarkari naukri applications and upholding public service standards in Assam.
