In India, the Central Government on Wednesday decided to set up a national recruitment agency to enter all government sector jobs.

The government claims that this agency will bring transformative reforms in the admission process in central government jobs and will also promote transparency.

Under this agency, a Common Eligibility Test i.e. Common Aptitude Test will be conducted which will replace the primary examination to be taken for Railway, Banking and Central Government jobs.

At present, the youth have to face heavy financial pressure and many difficulties to participate in the examinations conducted for different positions.

Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi has praised this decision of the cabinet by tweeting from his official Twitter account.

Modi wrote, "National recruitment agency will prove to be a boon for crores of youth. The Common Eligibility Test will end many exams and will save precious time as well as resources. This will also give a big boost to transparency. ''

What is a common eligibility test?

Every year, two to three crore youth in India take different types of examinations to get jobs in central government and banking sector.

For example, for the jobs in banking sector, youth have to fill the application form several times a year. And each time the youth have to pay fees ranging from three to four hundred rupees to eight-nine hundred rupees.

But the National Recruitment Agency will now conduct a common eligibility test for all such tests.

With the help of this test, screening and examination of candidates at the first level for SSC, RRB and IBPS will be taken.

According to the Press Information Bureau of India, the Common Eligibility Test will be an online test under which graduates, 12th and tenth pass will be able to test youth.

The special thing is that after the start of these exams, the candidates will not have to prepare for different examinations and their different ways.

Because there is no uniformity in the questions asked in SSC, banking and railway exams. In such a situation, youth have to prepare separately for every exam.

How will this exam be done?

To give these exams, the youth had to travel by bus and rail to the examination centers built away from home at an early age.

It is being claimed by the government that the National Recruitment Examination will solve these difficulties of the youth as two centers will be set up in every district for this examination.

Apart from this, the score achieved in this exam will be valid for three years. And there will be no upper age limit in this examination.

What will change with this exam?

Experts in the education sector are believing that this is a reformist step that has been waiting for a long time.

This step of the government is good and its effect will also be long term but it is only the first and very small step towards reform. Much improvement is yet to be done in the field of competition exams to be held for jobs. In the name of competition exams in India, only youth are wasted precious time, money and resources.

The Common Eligibility Test should cover all the competition exams conducted for jobs in India. This will not waste the precious time, money and resources of the youth.
