 SSC Tier-1 Exams to be replaced by NRA CET: Check Common Eligibility Test by National Recruitment Agency for SSC CGL/CHSL/MTS/Sub Inspector/Constable/ Stenographer/Other SSC Exams

SSC Tier-1 Exams to be replaced by National Recruitment Agency (NRA) Common Eligibility Test (CET): SSC Tier-1 Exam will be replaced by CET which will be conducted by NRA separately for Graduate, 12th & 10th Pass Non-Technical Group C & B Posts. Let’s look in detail how NRA CET will impact Staff Selection Commission (SSC) Recruitment Process.


National Recruitment Agency, NRA has received the cabinet nod and would soon be formed. Under the NRA, a common eligibility test or CET would be conducted for recruitment to various Group C and D (non-gazetted) government jobs. Wondering how will the common eligibility test for government jobs work? Read on.


How will NRA CET work for Government Jobs?

Candidates interested in applying for various government jobs – like SSC, RRB and IBPS Banking Jobs, would have to register at the single registration NRA portal. There would be one registration id for the candidate. Once registered, the candidates can then appear for the examination.

NRA would release the schedule for the CET, which would be conducted twice every year. The single examination fees would be applicable and candidates need not appear for multiple examinations. Just one CET score would be applicable.

The exam would be conducted in online mode at 1000 examination centres designated by the government across the country. Special focus is being given to setting up an examination centre in every district of the country with a special thrust on creating examination infrastructure in 117 aspirational districts. Candidates would be able to choose the medium of instruction from 12 major Indian languages.

Though the details of the test are not clear, based on the preliminary examinations conducted at present, it can be suggested that the examination may be 1 hour or 3 hour long tests in MCQ format. The details of the same would be released once the schedule is released.

Once the exam is conducted, the candidates would be provided with their CET score, which would be valid for a period of three years. This CET Score can then be used for applying for the various RRB, IBPS or Banking and SSC jobs, as notified from time to time. As to whether there would be a cut off for various exams or if there would be a simple minimum CET score requirement has not been clarified as yet.


What is Common Eligibility Test – CET?

Let us start by understanding what a CET means. As the name suggests, it is a common examination which would be conducted by the NRA to check your eligibility for the various government jobs/ recruitments. It has three basic components, namely

Common – it is common (or same) for all the candidates appearing for the posts. Also, it would be common across examinations for various categories (based on qualifying criteria of 10th, 12th pass or graduates) for different jobs.

Eligibility – meaning it would merely check the eligibility of the candidates to appear for the recruitment process and is not same as a recruitment examination. To further explain, it is like a preliminary or Tier 1 examination where the general and basic aptitude of the candidate is tested. It is not particularly related to the job that you are seeking but more a test of your understanding of basics for the particular level (class 10, 12 or graduate). Also, it is merely to check the eligibility and does not mean that you would be selected.

Test – it’s an examination. This would be an online examination and would be time bound. Candidates would be required to answer a set of specific questions in the given time span.

INDIA'S POSITION IN MANUCFACTURING GOODS WORLDWIDE

INDIA'S POSITION IN MANUCFACTURING GOODS WORLDWIDE Many think that in the aftermath of the pandemic, several manufacturing companies operating from China will relocate their businesses to other destinations, including India.      Many American, Japanese, and South Korean companies based in China have initiated discussions with the Indian government to relocate their plants to India. Companies are expected to exit China due to three primary reasons. The fi rst is the realisation that  relying heavily on China for building capaci ties and sourcing manufacturing goods is not  an ideal business strategy due to supply  chain disruptions in the country caused by  COVID­19.  The second is the fear of Chinese  dominance over the supply of essential in dustrial goods.  The third is the growing risk  and uncertainty involved in operating from  or dealing with China in the light of geopolit ical and trade confl icts between China and  other countries, particularly the U.S. Prime  Minister Nar

Update : One Can't be Penalized for Not Wearing Mask in Car. Greetings, Not wearing mask while driving attracts a penalty of Rs.500. Medical experts also point that masks should be mandatory in public spheres. But the base of this rule comes from supreme court's rule in 2019.  In many states Mask is mandated under the guidelines of National Disaster Management Act.  Violation of such guidelines can lead to imprisonment up to 6 months or fine up to Rs.1000. Delhi Government's Delhi Epidemic diseases under the Epidemic Diseases Act, 1897 requires masks in all public spheres.  But how can a car be considered a public space?
