Hello Mr Tarachand Royal, thanks for your visit and being a regular reader of this blog....regarding the cadre allotment in CSE, from year 2008,the prevailing cadre policy has been changed...Now,you will be asked your own preference of the states [you have to rank all the states] at the time of interview.....The cadre will be allotted according to your choice given and your final rank [as well as your respective rank in your category]....The insider and outsider simply means those who belongs to the State [resident of that state]are insider and those whose residence is in other states are outsider for that particular state...for e.g. For Rajasthan you will be insider candidate and somebody from M.P. will be outsider for your state.....The scheme of outsider and insider will prevail....thus from year 2008 onwards....the allotment of home state cadre will depend on :
[1] Your preference of the states
[2] Your Rank [in your respective category]
[3]The availability of seats [according to insider]
Thus sometime it may happen that you may have very high rank in your respective category but the seats in insider quota is not vacant then you will be allotted a different state cadre accorinding to your preference.....Regarding your qualifying in general list..generally Dopt will allot you the service which is best for you according to your preference..it means if you qualify in general list with poor ranking then you will be shifted to your respective category list to allot you a good service..say in general list you may get IRTS but by shifting to your category you will get IAS irrespective of the fact that you qualify in general list and didn't take benefit of reservation...but if your age is more than 30 yrs or attempt more then 4 then definitely you will be considered as your category candidate not OBC or any other category......Actually this whole process is a bit confusing..I hope I made things a little bit clear.....further query is welcome..keep blogging.....
