PS: But Govt also intends to use NEET PG aspirants services for COVID duties for a minimum 100 days
makes sense. good idea to utilise know how. cant say the same for upsc aspirants though. if cse is postponed it would mainly have to do with the scale of the exam and the fact that its date is close to the expected peak period.
@Johnny_Distracted my own uncle died 5l4 days after getting vaccine (1st shot)Not to scare.. But that's a fact...
At times, people are not aware that they are infected, and they go for vaccination..that can also lead to complications. Not saying that was the case with your uncle, but just a possibility.
Generally speaking, likelihood of dying from lack of vaccination is far far more than from dying due to it. So, get vaccinated people. That’s probably also the only way to stop having repeated waves.
From tomorrow a new breed will emerge to postpone 2021 pre.!

Given the intensity and fallout of the second wave, this is a very genuine request.
Another indicator that pre will be postponed. Hope upsc comes out with a statement at the earliest. Suspense is only making things worse. Koi insider info hai to batao bhai?@LionKing2021
This is for educational institutions, not upsc. They conducted 2020 pre when all colleges and universities were supposed to take online exams
Allfather UPSC will speak only when he's sure he won't have to speak again. That means, they're going to delay any decision till they're absolutely sure they cannot conduct the exam. And yes that's concerning for all of us, but frankly UPSC is only bothered about the ones who make into the final list, rest of all us are just roll numbers.expect a decision by May end at the earliest.
Also got to know from a *fellow aspirant's source* that last week there were questions asked in UPSC office about whether there's any precedence for conducting next exam cycle before concluding the previous cycle- the answer was no, this is unprecedented. Now this at best is an open ended insider information- didn't come with any conclusion

Woooaaah! I had no idea at all that even UPSC papers were leaked once. I always thought of them as a blemish-free organisation.
I know people have bigger issues, even more in these scary times due to Covid. When I pinged Shabbir Sir, he asked me to thank my stars and reminded me that I was in a good place- totally correct. But my frustration just doesnt go away! It cant
I am in the US and i have been preparing for this exam for the last almost an year. Rather i should say i resumed my prep after failing thrice in CSE and having left for my masters. Age 31; didnt switch jobs which could have definitely fetched me 50k$ more; didnt also put extraordinary efforts at work that could have made me a star in my LOB- bas jitna bola, utna kam deliver kr diya; sidelined every possible fun for this exam, there is so much to get distracted from when you get to stay in the US - lake view apartment hai mera and i can see Mt Rainier from my balcony if it is not cloudy in Seattle. Friends make trips to several places every long weekend, but i dont accompany them, i choose to study; they party and talk of buying homes! With so many temptations and fun that my friends do infront of me, I have been studying and now US has imposed a travel ban for flights from India that is unlikely to be uplifted until and unless cases come down in the range of 50-60k.
I feel as if I prepared for abattle that i couldnt even fight in.
Sala kbhi kbhi lgta hai ambitious hona bhi bekar chiz hai. Kum cheezo se jo log satisfy ho jate hain, their life is so much simpler.
Aisa lag rha zindagi khacchar ki tarah mehnat krva rahi thi for no reason! Frustrated to the core!

The travel ban doesn't apply to Green Card holders nor does it apply to certain classes of visa holders like H1-B. So check if your visa class is included in the list of exceptions or not.
