The Rajasthan Employee Selection Board has withdrawn the appointments of 211 candidates out of 471 selected for driver posts after they did not report for duty by the stipulated deadline.
Rajasthan Roadways recently announced recruitment for 500 driver positions across the state. After a multi‑stage selection process, 471 candidates were declared successful and were expected to report for duty within a prescribed time frame.
However, 211 of the selected candidates failed to join the service by the deadline set by the Rajasthan Employee Selection Board. The board did not disclose specific reasons for the non‑attendance, noting only that the deadline had been clearly communicated to all successful applicants.
In response, the board formally cancelled the appointments of the 211 candidates, stating that the failure to report constituted a breach of the terms of appointment. The cancellation clears the way for the board to consider re‑advertising the vacant posts or offering them to other shortlisted candidates.
The decision underscores the strict compliance expectations in government recruitment and may affect the career prospects of the affected aspirants, who will need to re‑apply in future recruitment cycles if they wish to join Rajasthan Roadways.
