UPSC Says Cannot Postpone Prelims Examinations

The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) told the Supreme Court, on September 28, that it cannot postpone the UPSC prelims examinations scheduled for October 4, since necessary arrangements and logistics for the examinations have already been made. The court directed the commission to record the arrangements made through an affidavit, during the next hearing on September 30. A petition  had been filed by UPSC aspirants to postpone the exam owing to the pandemic.
