Kerala Administrative Service (KAS)

ABOUT KERALA ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE

Kerala Administrative Service (KAS) is the civil service of Kerala state. The Kerala Government had already notified the Kerala Administrative Service (KAS) Rules-2018, with the objective to build a cadre of public servants as a second line of managerial talent for effective implementation of its policies and programmes. This is a great opportunity for Kerala’s dynamic youth to be part of the state government administration and decision making process and thereby bringing quality, efficiency and effectiveness to public service. It will also help the government fill the current vacant positions in the service and in future, build the feeder category for the recruitment of Indian Administrative Service officers in Kerala Cadre through appointment by promotion from State Civil Service (SCS) category superseding the existing rules in this regard. Another objective of KAS is to provide opportunity for growth to bright, talented and committed officers in Government Service and prepare them for senior level administrative and managerial positions in public service.

The Kerala Public Service Commission (KPSC) will conduct examinations to recruit candidates for the service. According to KPSC, the Kerala Administrative Service Official Notification will be released soon. Those who pass the examination will be posted as Group B Gazetted Officer (Junior Time Scale) in various departments of the Government of Kerala including public administration and finance.

Presently, there are two ways a Kerala government employee could be conferred IAS. The person should be either working with the revenue department in a clerical post for many years, or be recruited in the state government service after passing the Deputy Collector examination. However, a state civil servant is promoted to IAS only if his/her service track record is good and it involves a very long process to get a conferred IAS. Incidentally, the introduction of KAS will act as a fast feeder category to Indian Administrative Service in the minimum possible time. Moreover, KAS has the capability to recruit roughly 3000 officers in various departments for a span of 10 years.
