The appointments will be finalised after medical tests and background checks on the candidates.

The successful candidates faced viva voce. Over 27,000 candidates took the exams, the first BCS tests since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic on Feb 26.
More than 31,000 candidates registered for the exams after the PSC advertised the recruitment in November last year.
