Karnataka Public Service Commission is type of a staff selection commission for Government of Karnataka, India.


The Public Service Commission of Karnataka was established under the
requirements of the Constitution of India on 18th may, 1951.

In agreement with the provisions of clause 14 of the Public Service
Commission Regulations 1950, the staff of the Public Service Commissioner
as it stood on 18-05-1951, was continued as the centre of the staff of the
Public Service Commission.

The Office of the Public Service Commission was situated in the “United India”
buildings, Bangalore City, till 20-05-1951.

Since the place fell short of the actual requirements of the Commission, its
office was shifted to “Balabrooie”, on Palace Road, Bangalore, on 21st May
1951 and persisted there upto 7th November 1956.

Later it was moved to the north wing of “ Atarakacheri” a portion of the High
Court Building and continued there upto January 1968.

Subsequently it was shifted to the present premises of “Park House” placed
on the north west side of Vidhana Soudha.

The Commission celebrated its “Golden Jubilee” on 01-03-2002 and
foundation stone was laid for the creation of a new building for the
Commission.

The building was inaugurated on 19-11-2005 and at present the office is
operative in the new building called "Udyoga Soudha".

Further as a mark of completion of 60 years of its service, it celebrated its
“Diamond Jubilee” on 18-05-2011.

To Remember this celebration, foundation stone was laid for construction of
one more new building known as “Vajra Mahotsava Soudha” in the buildings
of the office to cater the growing need and to serve the people in general
and the candidates in particular more effectively.
