Category Numbers 162 to 173: inside the Kerala Public Service Commission's newest extraordinary gazette
Background
Applications under the Commission's previous extraordinary gazette close this week, which makes the newest one worth reading closely.
The Kerala Public Service Commission's latest extraordinary gazette carries Category Numbers 162 of 2026 to 173 of 2026.
The Commission has set the second of December as the last date for these applications.
The batch runs heavily to Medical Education posts, with Assistant Professor notifications in Cardiology, Pathology and Cardio Vascular and Thoracic Surgery.
Most of those are NCA notifications, meant for communities whose earlier reserved vacancies went unfilled, and they name Muslim, Latin Catholic and Anglo Indian, Dheevara and Scheduled Caste turns.
Two Laboratory Assistant notifications for the Kerala Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation are split into a General Category part and a Society Category part.
The rest cover an Attender post at Travancore-Cochin Chemicals reserved for Scheduled Tribes, Sterilisation Technician posts, a Police Constable Trainee turn in the Armed Police Battalion, and a Typist post for ex-servicemen.
The Commission works from Thulasi Hills at Pattom in Thiruvananthapuram.
In plain words
NCA Non-Joining Candidate Available / Nil Candidate Available vacancy — A notification made for a reserved community whose turn in an earlier recruitment went unfilled for want of candidates.
