How was SSC ‘Formed?
In 1975, the Government of India constituted a commission called Subordinate Service Commission to suggest reforms for the organisation. In lieu of this, in September 1977, the Subordinate Services Commission was renamed as Staff Selection Commission. As per the suggestions made by the commission, the functions of the Staff Selection Commission were redefined by The Government of India through the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and the new constitution and functions of Staff Selection Commission (SSC full form) came into effect from 1 June 1999.
