Rajasthan Roadways has seen 45% of its selected conductor candidates fail to report for duty. The Rajasthan Staff Selection Board had advertised 500 posts, and appointment letters were issued to 471 candidates.
However, 211 of those selected did not join, leading to the cancellation of their appointments. The development was reported on Sunday, 8 November 2026.
The board will now have to decide on a course of action for the unfilled posts.
The no-show of nearly half the selected candidates points to a mismatch between the offered job terms and what job seekers expect. For the state roadways, this means continued staffing shortages despite a formal recruitment process. The Rajasthan Staff Selection Board now faces the decision of whether to conduct a fresh recruitment or to issue a second call to candidates on the waiting list.
