Exam Zones – Zone Wise District Distribution

The Commission may conduct the examination zone-wise depending on the number of applications received. Here are the zones:

The Commission reserves the right to reduce or increase the number of zones depending on the total number of applications received.

Points You Must Keep in Mind

Your admission at all stages of the selection process is purely provisional and is subject to scrutiny. If at any point it is found that you do not fulfill any eligibility condition, your candidature will be cancelled by the Commission without notice.

Your date of birth as filled in the online application is final. No request for change of date of birth will be entertained or granted at any stage.

Do not submit false, incorrect, or tampered documents. If any false declaration is detected even after the recommendation is made, the Commission will refer the matter to the Government for necessary action and your appointment may be cancelled.

Once you submit the application, no documents will be accepted separately. Make sure everything is uploaded correctly before you hit the final submit button.

Canvassing in any form — directly or indirectly — will lead to immediate disqualification of your candidature.
