The Uttarakhand Public Service Commission (UKPSC) has postponed the Main exam 2025. The UKPSC Main exam was scheduled to be held between December 6 to 9, 2025. The Uttarakhand High Court has earlier ordered to defer the PCS Main exam 2025 amid a controversy around four questions from the prelims exam.
The court directive came following a plea filed by candidates who questioned validity of few questions asked in the preliminary exam. The HC has ordered the removal of question number 70 and summoned an expert committee for the scrutiny of the remaining disputed questions of the PCS exam.
This recruitment exam is being held for 123 vacancies at various services under the state government services under the UKPSC PCS (Combined State Civil/Upper Subordinate Services Examination). The selection process involves prelims, mains and an interview. Those who qualify in the prelims exam will be called for the mains exam.
