One Paper of Optional Subject Instead of Two Papers [HPAS Mains]

This is to inform all the stake holders that H.P. Public Service Commission has finalized and uploaded the new HAS Allied Combined Services pattern of examination, generally on the analogy of Civil Services Examination of UPSC, on HPPSC website on January 30, 2016 which is being implemented with effect from January, 2017. The syllabi for Main Examination was finalized by more than thirty experts, which was approved by State Government.

Commission had earlier decided to keep two optional subject papers (Paper VII & VIII) of 100 marks each, which was aimed at creating a level playing field. After discussing this issue within HPPSC and with other State Public Service Commissions, it is now proposed to have only one optional subject paper of two hundred marks.

The syllabus of optional subject papers of HAS Allied Combined Services Exam will not be changed. Candidates would be now required to prepare for only one optional subject Paper (on the basis of combined syllabus of two optional subject papers).

The sample question paper of new pattern of one optional subject (Political Science) as appended below, which will give an idea about the pattern of Question Papers. Gradually, sample question papers of other subjects will also be uploaded on HPPSC website.
