cabinet approves National Recruitment Agency

Union Cabinet approves setting up of ‘National Recruitment Agency’ to conduct the Common Eligibility Test under the chairmanship of the Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi.

National Recruitment Agency(NRA) will conduct the Common Eligibility Test(CET) that will help to shortlist candidates for the Group B and C (non-technical) posts. It’s a multi-agency body to cover the prelims test by the Staff Selection Commission (SSC), the Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) and the Institute of Banking Service Personnel (IBPS).

National Recruitment Agency: What it means

Applicants who qualify this Common Entrance Test (CET) can apply to any recruitment agencies for a mains exam/higher level of examination. As there were used to multiple examinations for the different post which creates a burden on the candidates and also they face venue related issues. On average, 2.5 crores to 3 crore applicants appear in each of these examinations. A CET would enable these candidates to appear once and apply to any or all of these recruitment agencies for the higher level of examination.

National Recruitment Agency

Prime Minister Narendra Modi also tweeted “The #NationalRecruitmentAgency will prove to be a boon for crores of youngsters. Through the Common Eligibility Test, it will eliminate multiple tests and save precious time as well as resources. This will also be a big boost to transparency.”

The Union Minister of State (Independent Charge), (DoNER), MoS PMO, Personnel, Public Grievances, Pensions, Atomic Energy and Space, Dr. Jitendra Singh hails setting up of the National Recruitment Agency (NRA) as a historic decision of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi.

“NRA will pave the way for transformational reform in the recruitment process for central government jobs. National Recruitment Agency is a combination of convenience and cost-effectiveness for candidates. The move will not only lead to Ease of Recruitment, Selection, and Job placement but will ultimately ensure Ease of Living, as about 1000 centers, one in each district will be set up, where candidates can take the test. He said, the measure will immensely help the candidates from the far-flung and hilly areas and particularly the girl candidates, besides saving their valuable time and resources.” Dr. Jitendra Singh said.

Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman in her budget speech on 1st February 2020 has announced to set up National Recruitment Agency(NRA) for conducting CET. The Government has sanctioned a sum of Rs. 1517.57 crore for the National Recruitment Agency (NRA).

Salient Features on National Recruitment Agency(NRA) conducting Common Entrance Test (CET)

  1. Boon for the youth: At present, applicants seeking government jobs have to appear for separate examinations & have to pay a fee to multiple recruiting agencies for which similar eligibility conditions have been prescribed.  Now, CET applicants will appear once and apply to any or all of these recruitment agencies for the higher level of examination.
  2. A single exam i.e prelims will be held for IBPS, SSC, and RRB initially.
  3. There shall be no restriction on the number of attempts in prelims to be taken by a candidate to appear in the CET subject to the upper age limit.
  4. The CET score will be valid for three years from the date of declaration of the result.
  5. Examination Centres in every District of the country would greatly enhance access to the applicants.
  6. Major Relief to poor applicants & women candidates to benefit greatly.
  7. Multiple languages: The CET would be available in a different number of languages.
