# Rajasthan Plans Annual RAS Recruitment, Notification by June 2027 2026-11-13T21:26:47+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Outlets counted: indianmasterminds.com The Rajasthan government is considering making Rajasthan Administrative Services (RAS) recruitment an annual exercise, with the next notification expected before June 2027. The proposed recruitment may include more than 500 vacancies, according to reports. The RAS 2026 Preliminary Examination is scheduled for December 6, 2026. After that, the Personnel Department will begin collecting vacancy details from departments for the next cycle. The government is also working to reduce the five-stage process currently required before an advertisement is issued. The proposal aims to bring predictability to RAS recruitment, similar to the Union Public Service Commission's regular cycle. However, annual recruitment has been discussed before without becoming a consistent practice. The 2027 notification, vacancy count and examination schedule are yet to be formally announced. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Annualising RAS recruitment would bring predictability for about five lakh candidates who apply each year, but past attempts have not been sustained. The government's plan to shorten the five-stage advertisement process addresses a procedural bottleneck, though the timeline depends on vacancy data collection after the December 6 prelims. The Personnel Department's ability to stick to a pre-June 2027 notification will test whether this cycle breaks the pattern of irregular advertisements seen in 2025. ## Coverage - indianmasterminds.com Straight reporting of government plan with no editorial slant This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
