TPO stands for Temporary Pass Over. These are vacancies that are temporarily kept unfilled for specific categories (e.g., OBC, SC, ST) due to the non-availability of suitable candidates in that particular turn. These turns are carried forward and filled later when eligible candidates from those categories become available or through further rotation as per rules.
