Speaking on the recent recruitment process for LDC, JSA etc, secretary Rai asserted that they have taken care of all aspects for a fair examination, transparency and merit.The conclusion of the recent recruitment examination, APSSB has set a benchmark for all other Indian states where SSB is functional, he asserted.
The Secretary further informed that with the recruitment process being charted out prior to actual examinations, the APSSB was able to complete the recruitment process in a “record time frame of one week” while also ensuring fairness and transparency.
He added  that to ensure transparency and fairness, the APSSB had appointed observers for all 11 districts where recent LDC, JSA etc recruitment examinations were conducted.  Besides that, APSSB is also uploading OMR answer sheets, score sheets of candidates, etc in their web portal for transparency, informed Rai.

“Due to the steps taken towards ensuring fair and transparent recruitment examinations, the number of RTI applications to APSSB seeking details has gone down drastically. It is because we are already uploading all relevant details and documents in our web portal for transparency,” he said.
The Secretary, however, expressed his disappointment over the number of aspirants clearing the skill test for the recent LDC, JSA, record keeper, record clerk, and computer operator recruitment examination.
He informed that only 11 among the 225 candidates had successfully cleared the skill test. The Secretary informed that the vacant posts which were not filled will be carried forward to the next recruitment examination.
