Administrative and civil-service recruitment is run by each Northeast state’s own Public Service Commission — APSC, TPSC, MPSC, NPSC, APPSC, SPSC, and the Mizoram and Sikkim equivalents — covering gazetted, allied, and grade-III administrative posts through their combined competitive examinations. At the central level, UPSC’s Civil Services Examination and the North Eastern Council (NEC) also draw NE candidates into administrative and regional-development roles. Nijukti tracks every state PSC notification with the exam stages and eligibility spelled out plainly.
