In 1854, as per the Constitution of India, a committee, headed by Lord Macaulay, was formed to introduce competitive examinations for specific positions. The Bihar Public Service Commission was officially established on April 1, 1949, following its separation from the Commission for the States of Orissa and Madhya Pradesh. This separation was under the provisions of section 261(1) of the Government of India Act of 1935, as amended.
