The UP PCS exam is being organized for the recruitment of 254 posts.
Initially the exams were scheduled for September 23 and have now been shifted to September 26 to 29.
The Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission (UPPSC) recently made a significant announcement regarding the dates of the Combined State/Upper Subordinate Services (UPPSC PCS) Main Exam 2023. The exam, which was originally scheduled for September 23, had to be rescheduled as it clashed with the dates of the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) Civil Service Main Exam 2023, set to take place from September 15 to September 24. In response to this overlap, UPPSC has now extended the UP PCS Main Exam to be held from September 26 to September 29.
In an official notice issued by UPPSC, the commission stated, “In relation to the Combined State Senior Subordinate Services Main Examination 2023, the candidates are informed that the main examination in question was proposed on September 23, 2023, but due to the Union Public Service Commission’s civil service examination being held from September 15 to September 24, 2023, it has been postponed and will be held between September 26 to 29.”
The UP PCS exam aims to fill 254 vacant posts, and a total of 4047 candidates have successfully qualified the preliminary examination and will now appear for the main examination.
As the UPPSC PCS main exam dates have been rescheduled, the commission is expected to release the Detailed Application Form (DAF) for the main exam soon. Candidates appearing for the exam will be required to fill out the UPPSC 2023 main exam form online. The DAF serves as a crucial dossier during the interview process, and candidates are advised to carefully fill it out, as a majority of the interview questions will be based on the information provided in the DAF.
In a notable development, the UPPSC PCS prelims result for 2023 was released online on June 27. This year, UPPSC has announced that it will be the first time the UPPSC PCS main exam will be conducted without an optional subject. Following approval from the state government, the Commission has made alterations to the pattern of the UPPSC 2023 main exam, as stated in the official notification.
