Combined State / Upper Subordinate Services (PCS) (General Recruitment / Special Recruitment) Examination, 2019 And Assistant Conservator of Forest (A.C.F.) / Range Forest Officer (R.F.O.) Services Examination - 2019
उत्तर प्रदेश लोक सेवा आयोग (UPPSC) ने पीसीएस ( PCS ), एसीएफ एवं आरएफओ 2019 प्रारंभिक परीक्षा (UPPCS Prelims 2019) के लिए ऑनलाइन आवेदन बुधवार से शुरू कर दिए। पीसीएस के एसडीएम, डिप्टी एसपी समेत अन्य तकरीबन 300 पदों के लिए होने जा रहे चयन में इस बार आयोग ने कई महत्वपूर्ण बदलाव किए हैं। विशेष चयन के अंतर्गत रिक्त पद 9 है। मुख्य परीक्षा से अरबी, फारसी, सोशल वर्क, डिफेंस और कृषि अभियांत्रिकी को हटा दिया है।
पहले मुख्य परीक्षा में 33 विषय होते थे जो अब घटकर 28 रह जाएंगे। -मुख्य परीक्षा के लिए पहले रिक्त पदों के सापेक्ष 18 गुना अभ्यर्थियों को सफल किया जाता था लेकिन अब 13 गुना अभ्यर्थी ही मेन्स में शामिल होंगे। साक्षात्कार में भी तीन की बजाय दो गुना अभ्यर्थियों को मौका दिया जाएगा। पहली बार आर्थिक रूप से कमजोर (ईडब्ल्यूएस) वर्ग के अभ्यर्थियों को 10 प्रतिशत आरक्षण मिलेगा। आयोग ने पहली दफा पूरा विज्ञापन अंग्रेजी भाषा में जारी किया गया है। सहायक वन संरक्षक (एसीएफ) के दो और रेंज फॉरेस्ट ऑफिसर (आरएफओ) के 53 पद हैं।
मुख्य परीक्षा से ये विषय हटाए गए
यूपीपीएससी ने मुख्य परीक्षा से अरबी, फारसी, सोशल वर्क, डिफेंस और कृषि अभियांत्रिकी विषयों को को बाहर कर दिया है। ये विषय संघ लोक सेवा आयोग की सबसे प्रतिष्ठित आईएएस (UPSC IAS) में भी नहीं है।
पहले मुख्य परीक्षा में 33 विषय होते थे जो अब घटकर 28 विषय रह जाएंगे। मुख्य परीक्षा के लिए पहले रिक्त पदों के सापेक्ष 18 गुना अभ्यर्थियों को सफल किया जाता था लेकिन अब 13 गुना अभ्यर्थी ही मेन्स में शामिल होंगे। साक्षात्कार में भी तीन की बजाय दो गुना अभ्यर्थियों को मौका दिया जाएगा।
आयोग ने 18 अक्तूबर से शुरू हो रही पीसीएस 2018 मुख्य परीक्षा में बदलाव किया है। नए पैटर्न में अब पीसीएस मेंस में दो के बजाए सिर्फ एक वैकल्पिक विषय है। इसके दो प्रश्न पत्र होंगे। जबकि सामान्य अध्ययन के प्रश्न पत्रों की संख्या दो से बढ़कर चार कर दी गई है। इसलिए मुख्य परीक्षा सिर्फ चार दिन में ही समाप्त हो रही है। पूर्व में परीक्षा में 18 से 20 दिन लग जाते थे।
इससे पहले भी यूपीपीएससी ने चयन प्रक्रिया में यूपीएससी का अनुसरण करता रहा है। संघ लोक सेवा आयोग ने 2011 में आईएएस की प्रारंभिक परीक्षा में सीटेट लागू किया था तो उसके एकसाल बाद 2012 में यूपीपीएससी ने इसे लागू किया। यूपीएससी ने 2012 में सीटेट को क्वालीफाईंग किया तो यूपीपीएससी ने 2014 में इसे क्वालीफाईंग कर दिया।
सीटेट से प्रभावित छात्रों को संघ लोक सेवा आयोग ने दो अतिरिक्त अवसर देते हुए 30 की बजाय 32 वर्ष तक के अभ्यर्थियों से आवेदन स्वीकार किए तो उत्तर प्रदेश लोक सेवा आयोग ने भी दो अतिरिक्त अवसर दिया था।
