What is Loksewa (Public Service Commission)?
लोक सेवा आयोग
Loksewa refers to the Public Service Commission (PSC) of Nepal, the constitutional body that recruits civil servants through open competitive exams. 'Loksewa' is shorthand for these government-job exams for posts such as Kharidar, Nayab Subba and Section Officer.
The PSC sets age limits, syllabi and vacancy cycles and conducts written exams and interviews for federal, and (via provincial PSCs) provincial and local, government jobs.
Age eligibility is governed by the Civil Service Act 2049 — generally 18–35 for open posts (40/45 for women and certain categories).
