Appointment orders for 211 conductors cancelled in Rajasthan Roadways

The appointment orders for 211 candidates selected for the post of conductor in Rajasthan Roadways have been cancelled. Despite succeeding in the final stage of the selection process, these candidates failed to report for duty within the allotted timeframe. Consequently, the Rajasthan Staff Selection Board has decided to cancel all these appointments with immediate effect.

Details of the recruitment process reveal that the Rajasthan State Road Transport Corporation (Roadways) had initiated a recruitment process to fill a total of 500 vacant conductor posts. This recruitment process was planned and managed by the Rajasthan Staff Selection Board. Upon reaching the final stage of the recruitment process, the Board declared a total of 471 candidates successful.

However, a significant discrepancy was observed among these successful candidates. Out of the 471 selected candidates, 211 failed to report for duty within the prescribed time limit. This number accounts for approximately 45 per cent of the total selected candidates. Due to such a large number of candidates failing to report on time, 211 posts under the conductor recruitment in Roadways have now become vacant again.

Regarding the stages of the appointment process, once the selection process was completed and the Board declared 471 candidates successful, the Roadways administration had also issued official orders to appoint all these selected candidates to their various workplaces. According to these orders, each candidate was to reach their assigned location and take charge of their duties. However, despite the issuance of appointment orders, 211 candidates did not report for duty within the specified time.

According to the Rajasthan Staff Selection Board, the appointment orders of all candidates who did not report for duty within the stipulated time have been cancelled with immediate effect. Following this action, 211 posts under the conductor recruitment in Roadways currently remain vacant.

This incident makes it clear that even after the completion of the recruitment process, a large number of candidates failed to accept the appointment or report for duty. Consequently, the need to fill these posts has arisen again for the Roadways administration. These strict measures had to be taken because these candidates failed to report on time despite receiving appointment orders.

Rajasthan State Road Transport Corporation (RSRTC) was the main institution providing public transport services in Rajasthan. This corporation managed bus services in various areas of the state and provided transport facilities to passengers.
