3. State Public Service Commission

Similar to UPSC at the national level, there is a State Public Service Commission at the State level. The Constitution visualises the SPSC to be the ‘watchdog of merit system’ in the state. It is concerned with the recruitment to the state services and advises the government, when consulted, on promotion and disciplinary matters.
