Jagdish who is secretary of UPPSC said, “Following this, CB-CID was entrusted with the task of probing the paper leak episode. The agency submitted a final report in court on September, 2018. However, Special judicial magistrate, CB-CID quashed the report on 01st January 2020 and directed the agency for re-investigation.”

He also added that, “we constituted a two-member panel who recommended that re-investigation will lead to postponement of result for an indefinite period, in view of the court order. Therefore, it has been decided to cancel the previous papers and hold re-examination. The candidates who had applied will not be required to apply again and those who have registered can take the examination again.”

Candidates recommended to check the official website of Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission (UPPSC) for the latest updates regarding the examination and recruitment process.
