[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021

Because of the corona virus issue? If it does not happen then worst affected will be people whose interview is stuck, around 600-700 such people I think are yet to appear for their interview.


@neyawn sir and others, what is your take?

This is the official Thread for discussion of Prelims Postponement, Please do not create new threads for the same.

@pen Its permanent. Otherwise, there is not point in extending benefit of reservation to them.

@PhoenixD you're dead right, I desisted from commenting but I'm a resident of one the districts he was posted in. Let's just say that this balloon can burst any time.

I have filed my grievance please you all should also do it.Just copy paste my grievance if you dont have idea of your own.

"I want to bring to your notice that studies of many UPSC and other exam aspirants has suffered due to covid 19 pandemic. Many aspirants are preparing since long time but, due to the pandemic, last moment studies which is primarily required in exams like UPSC has suffered a lot. Even some students pay fees to coaching institutes in delhi and other places for test papers which are held at 2-3 mths before the exams. Other who left their jobs for preparation of exam have to rejoin their jobs due  to change in exam schedule. Many UPSC aspirants  belong to medical field and so they have to join their services so as to help fight corona and so they are the most affected aspirants as they have to work more than the required hour.Other left for their hometown (or small villages) where they have lack of resources to study like internet,books,newspapers .etc.

So i urge PM and DOPT on behalf of all the students to help us by providing one time age and attempt relaxation in UPSC exams so that the students having last attempt can get fair chance to prepare and appear for the exam." "

Thank you. You can check the message written above by FinalMission or you could type as follows


Many aspirants have been leaving their home town and studying in cities where there is wide availability of study materials. When the Covid lockdown was announced many scrambled to their homes. Many have left their study materials and returned home. Due to travel restrictions and the general fear of travelling back to the rooms in cities, many are still at home studying with what little study books they have. Considering the fact that the Covid-19 Pandemic is a rare event whose after-effect was not expected to continue for such a long duration, I humbly request you to grant an additional opportunity as a compensatory attempt in 2021; irrespective of Age/Attempt Limit, so that there will be a level playing field for the aspirants of UPSC Civil Service Exams.

This will come as a blessing to lakhs of serious aspirants such as myself who wish to study hard and serve our citizens by working with the civil services of our country.


Or You could take points that resonate with you and make your own letter

Keep your parents and yourself safe. We managed to find a bed for my father with much difficulty. The hospital has only one ventilator which is already in use. I'm praying he won't need it. I've been sick for two days, i doubt if i will get a bed if i need one. No exam should happen.


Location : Guntur/Vijayawad in Andhra Pradesh. If anybody has contacts that can help me or my mother get a bed on the day we need it, please help. Thanks
