submitted a proposal to the Central Government suggesting certain
changes in the existing scheme of Civil Services (Main) Examination to
make it more relevant with the present day, global as well as internal
scenario on the basis of the report of a committee, constituted by the

Chairman, University Grants Commission (UGC).
Till now, no decision has been taken by the Government on these recommendations.

Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pension and Minister of
State in the Prime Minister’s Office in written reply to a question by
Shri Avinash Pande in the Rajya Sabha today.
