What is TNPSC?

The Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission (TNPSC) is responsible for overlooking the recruitment of personnel into the state’s public service. It is a department of the Government of Tamil Nadu.

The Madras service commission came into being in 1929 under one of the Madras legislatures’ acts, and it was the first provincial public service commission in India.

In 1970 it adopted its current name and operated under Article 315 to 323 of part XIV of the Constitution of India.

The Indian Government established a Public Service Commission in the year 1923 to study the salary structures of the employees of the Indian civil services and to see if it was possible to redefine the KRA by transferring some responsibilities to the provincial services.

The special commission comprised of five Englishmen and four Indians chaired by Viscount Lee Farham.

One of the responsibilities of the commission was to address the rate of Indianisation of the Indian Civil Services and the Indian Police.

It was decided that in a period of 15 years, 50% of the members of the Indian Civil Services would be Indians, and similarly, the Indian Police Force would also be 50% Indians.

The provincial governments were now in charge of recruitment and management of their services as deemed proper.

Taking advantage of this power. The Provincial Government of Madras and Punjab formed their own public service commissions.

Madras Presidency province was the first in India to establish its own Service Commission under the Act of the Madras Legislature in 1929. It constituted of 3 members, including the Chairman.

In 1957, the states of India were re-organized, and several state-level commissions were constituted.

Madras Service Commission became Madras Public Service Commission in the year 1957.

In 1970 Madras was renamed Tamil Nadu; hence even the Public Service Commission got its new name Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission (TNPSC).
