Functions

Public Service Commissions have a very important role which they have to play very 

efficiently and impartially. The framers of the Constitution of India very consciously 

and deliberately bestowed upon the Public Service Commission a constitutional 

status so as to guarantee an independent status to them insulated from all types 

of external pressures and thereby ensure that these Commissions are able to 

discharge their functions in a just, equitable and objective manner.

Functions of a Public Service Commissions are enumerated in the Article 320 of the Constitution of India. The functions of the Tripura Public Service Commission are also regulated by the Tripura Public Service commission (Exemption from Consultation) Regulations, 1972, framed by the Governor, Tripura as per proviso to Clause (3) of the Article 320.
