THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Six months after the publication of the revenue department village field assistant rank list, less than 10 percent of the total recruitment took place. Candidates complain that recruitment is decreasing due to non-reporting of vacancies. While 2,135 persons in the previous list have been appointed, only 556 persons in the new list have been recommended for appointment. The new ranks have come into existence after one and a half years of cancellation of the previous rank lists. There was an expectation that there would be many vacancies due to this.

The rank lists have been made available for November 2023 - February 2024. Thrissur district has the highest number of recruitment memos- 75. Wayanad has the lowest - 6.
