There was no official communication on the official website of the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission. The APPSC Secretary P S R Anjaneyulu said that “This is the first time in the country that we have revolutionized the entire process by going paperless and introducing online examinations. The new system ensures complete transparency, leaving no scope for any malpractice, while also eliminating a lot of logistics burden connected with the recruitment exams”.

He further added, “On Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy’s directions, we studied the pattern followed by institutions like IIT and IIM in conducting the examinations. We then streamlined our recruitment process to remove the problems encountered previously. We have thus come up with the path-breaking digital initiatives like carbonless OMR barcoded answer sheets for objective type exams”.

“Dispatching these question papers in sealed cartons in large numbers to the districts with police security and then keeping them in safe custody and finally delivering them to the exam centres, all this was an onerous task. All these risks are eliminated in the digital mode and complete security and transparency is ensured as there is no scope for any leakage at any stage,”

He also shared the approximate number of candidates appearing in the APPSC exams. In the APPSC Group 1 exam, around 60000 candidates appear in the Preliminary exam and around 10000 candidates appear in the APPSC main exam. Similarly, in the APPSC Group 2 exam, around two lakh candidates appear in the Prelims exam.

Recently, the APPSC conducted the APPSC Group 1 main exam with the help of the Electronic Tab for the first time across the state. This was the first such exam across the nation.
