The Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission (UPSSSC) on Friday declared the final result for the Junior Assistant recruitment in the Industrial Development Department, selecting 50 candidates from a revised vacancy of 54 posts. The Commission had initially invited applications for 62 posts but reduced the number following a revised requisition from the department.

Of the selected candidates, 34 are from the Unreserved category, 3 from Scheduled Castes, 1 from Scheduled Tribes, 7 from Other Backward Classes and 5 from the Economically Weaker Sections. The category-wise cut-off marks were also released, with the Unreserved cut-off at 65 marks. The Commission said the selection process followed prescribed rules, merit and reservation provisions. The result remains subject to orders in pending petitions before the High Court. Five candidates have been selected provisionally, pending the Commission's final decision.
This recruitment round started with 62 posts but ended with 50 selections because the department revised its requirement mid-process. Such revisions are common when departments re-assess sanctioned strength or budget. The cut-off marks show a wide gap: Unreserved at 65, SC at 26.75, indicating low competition in reserved categories. The High Court petitions mentioned could delay appointments, a recurring feature in UP government recruitments. The provisional selection of five candidates leaves room for further adjustments. The next signal to watch is the court's order on the pending petitions, which will determine when the selected candidates can join.
