Reportedly amid the ongoing stir over the paper schedule, the Uttar Pradesh Public service Commission has agreed to conduct the PCS preliminary exam 2024 in a single shift. Accepting the demands of the aspirants, the UPPSC on thursday postponed the review Officer (RO) and Assistant review Officer (ARO) exams and announced to hold the Provincial Civil services (PCS) preliminary exam on the old pattern. However, following the commission’s decision, the students clarified that they will continue their protest until an official notice will be issued on the UPPSC website.
Moreover it was quoted that “PCS exam will be conducted as it was used to be conducted. The RO/ARO exam has been cancelled. But our demand is we want notice of that also and till there will be no notice on the website, we will continue to protest," One of the aspirants, who was protesting, was quoted as saying.
Furthermore the students’ protest came against the Uttar Pradesh Public service Commission’s (UPPSC) decision to split the PCS Pre and RO-ARO examinations into two days. The commission’s review Officer and Assistant review Officer Preliminary Examinations are scheduled for december 22 and 23. Similarly, the Provincial Civil service Preliminary Examination is set for december 7 and 8. However, the students are demanding that the exams should be conducted on a single day. Thousands of students have gathered on the streets to protest against the UPPSC, demanding changes to the examination schedule.
