Exam Conducting Body: Transition to MPSC

A crucial change is that the Talathi exam will now be conducted by the Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC). This marks a shift from previous conducting bodies. MPSC's track record of timely examinations is a positive indicator for the recruitment process. The requisition letter, considering district-wise reservations and signed by Shri. Shrikant Mohite, Section Officer, Government of Maharashtra, further confirms the inclusion of PESA and Non-PESA categories where applicable.

Exam Syllabus Overview and Preparation Advice

The official advertisement for Talathi recruitment is anticipated within the current month. The Talathi exam will consistently feature four core subjects, each allocated 25 questions:

1. General Knowledge (GK)

2. English Grammar

3. Marathi Grammar

4. Mathematics + Reasoning (Aptitude)

Previously, exams conducted by TCS had established patterns, particularly for the Reasoning section and specific topics in Marathi Grammar and English Grammar. With MPSC now conducting the exam, the exact pattern might evolve, and a detailed discussion on this will follow once further clarity emerges. The marking scheme (one or two marks per question) is also yet to be confirmed.

Candidates are strongly advised to commence their Talathi exam preparation immediately, as the process is expected to move swiftly.
