The Mizoram government has announced plans to set up a reform panel for its Public Service Commission following student protests demanding changes.
The Mizoram government has announced that it will form a reform panel for the Mizoram Public Service Commission (MPSC) in response to growing student protests.

The proposed panel will review the current recruitment procedures, selection criteria and administrative practices, and will recommend reforms to improve the commission’s functioning.
