New Delhi: More than a month after
Prime Minister Narendra Modi called to
end the culture of
"sifarish" (recommendation leading to
nepotism), the government has
decided to do away with the process of
interviews in junior posts, sources told
NDTV.
Under the new system, which will
come into effect from January 1 next
year, skill tests and physical tests will
not be dispensed with and candidates
will have to prove their competence
before being recruited, the sources
said.
In case a department feels an
interview is a must, they have to seek
special permission from the
Department of Personnel and
Training.
In his address to the nation from the
ramparts of the Red Fort on
Independence Day, PM Modi had said,
"Jobs should be ordered on basis of
merit and not sifarish."
