We would therefore, like to request you kindly to issue necessary direction to the concerned administrative wing to finalise the vacancy position, eligibility list etc. on the basis of the details as collected by us from all the charges. The number of vacancies reported to UPSC for the direct recruitment is 180 for the R.Y. 2017-18.
