The group has submitted its report to CEO Prasar Bharati, Sh.Jawhar Sircar. The group included Dr. S.P. Gaur, former Secretary UPSC and Sh. N.K. Raghupathy former Chairman Staff Selection Commission. In its report the group has recommended immediate constitution of the Prasar Bharati Recruitment Board as an essential prerequisite for giving effect to policy decisions of Prasar Bharati in Human Resources sphere.

Also only online applications should be invited for direct recruitment through open competitive examinations and selection method.

Audition will also be prescribed for certain posts.
