Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: What does ‘Appointment Chart’ mean?
A: An Appointment Chart, released by KPSC, is a document that details how vacancies have been filled from a ranked list. It shows the candidates who have been advised for appointment, the turns (e.g., OC, EWS, SC/ST, OBC, NJD) satisfied, and the rotation system followed.
Q2: What is an ‘NJD’ vacancy?
A: NJD stands for Non-Joining Duty. An NJD vacancy arises when a candidate advised for appointment from a ranked list fails to join duty within the specified time. These vacancies are then reported back to KPSC and are filled by advising another candidate from the same ranked list, following the prescribed rotation.

A: You need to carefully go through the ‘List of Advised Candidates’ section in the official PDF document. Your name, rank number, and community will be listed against the rotation satisfied.

A: If your name is on the list, you should await further communication from KPSC or the Kerala Water Authority regarding document verification, medical examination, and joining formalities. Keep all your original documents ready.
