Following widespread student protests in Prayagraj, the Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission (UPPSC) has announced that the 2024 PCS Preliminary Examination will be held in a one-day format. The decision, made public on November 14, reverses an earlier plan to conduct the exam over two days, citing concerns about the exam's specific requirements. UPPSC clarified in a notification that the examination will now proceed in its traditional one-day format, as was done in the past. The move comes after Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath intervened, directing the Commission to accommodate students' concerns and hold discussions to resolve the issue. Students had voiced opposition to the original two-day format, prompting the swift decision. Prayagraj Students Protest: Yogi Adityanath Directs UPPSC to Conduct PCS Preliminary Exam in Single Day.
