RTI - Latest Vacancy Details of CAPF 2014

I had filed an RTI with UPSC regarding the latest vacancy details of the CAPF 2014 exam. At the time of publishing of the advertisement for the CAPF 2014 , UPSC had stated 136 vacancies overall. There were no vacancies reported in ITBP and SSB. But while filling up the DAF before the physical exam I noticed that in the options regarding the service preference SSB was also listed. So I sensed that the vacancies must have increased. Hence I filed this RTI with UPSC.

The reply came within a month and I am a bit late in sharing this reply with you all due to various preoccupations. Anyways nothing good came out of the reply, contrary to the belief that vacancies will have been increased, reply stated that current number of vacancies stood at 121 only. This is 15 lower than the earlier stated 136 vacancies.

The details of vacancies as given in the RTI are :

Service

OBC

UPSC called 720 candidates for the Physical Standard Test + Medical Tests.  That means in 1:6 with the number of vacancies.

Best of luck to all those who have qualified for the interview.
