Apart from this, Garg reportedly also is in charge of a mentally challenged kids school, a social service which gives that extra edge in the region.
Dr Radheshyam Garg will take over as RPSC chairman. Garg hails from Dholpur, home constituency of chief minister Vasundhara Raje.
Garg, according to the sources, is an RSS man and has served in the organization on important posts. His profile pegs him as one of best surgeons in the region and he runs a nursing home there. Apart from this, Garg reportedly also is in charge of a mentally challenged kids school, a social service which gives that extra edge in the region.
RPSC, the body entrusted with the task of recruiting government employees was without a head after its chairman Shyam Sunder Sharma retired on September 28. The commission is an eight-member body, including the chairman.
Chairman’s post is a constitutional one with the governor appointing the head. The term of the chairman and members is that of six years or 62 years of age, whichever is earlier. Garg will complete 62 in May, 2018. This means, he will serve the post for only six months.
The biggest challenge before Garg arises from wrong reasons in which the body has been indulged in the past. The RPSC has been often pulled up by the high court for its mismanagement and inefficiency in conducting exams.
The high court on many occasions observed that RPSC’s inefficiency is a major reason for unwanted litigations in the courts due to its botched up competitive exams. Garg will be a busy man in his short tenure. The chief minister Vasundhara Raje on December 13 had made announcement of 1.4 lakh government jobs under direct recruitment. A lion share of the recruitment will be done by the RPSC. Also, it now has to manage exams of more youth in coming days as applicants number is likely to grow in the wake of the government’s decision to increase age cap to 40 from 35 for youth taking competitive exams.
