One question gets deleted benefiting candidates with 2 marks
PSC has released the final answer sheet of the exam. One question has been deleted in General Studies. Its two marks have been given to all the candidates. At the same time, in the first question paper General Studies, two answers to five questions are considered correct. Similarly, in the second question paper of General Interest also, two answers to two questions are considered correct.
OBC dispute prevails
Meanwhile, questions are being raised as to why PSC did not release the individual score cards of the candidates along with the results like every time. PSC's answer to the question is that because the case of OBC reservation is pending in the court, the score cards have been withheld.
If the score card was released then it could have been only for the candidates selected in the main part. In such a situation, we did not release everyone's score cards. Similarly, the result of Forest Service is yet to be prepared, hence that result has not been released. As soon as the Forest Service result is ready, it will be declared.
