BPSC postpones 65th Main Exam 2020, new dates soon on bpsc.bih.nic.in

The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) has postponed BPSC 65th Main Exam 2020 which was earlier scheduled for August 4, 5, and 7. The new dates will be announced by the Commission on BPSC’s official website bpsc.bih.nic.in. The Commission has also postponed the 31st Judicial Service Prelims exam.

In June, BPSC had revised the examination schedule owing to the coronavirus pandemic but this time, the Commission hasn’t announced the new dates. According to the Bihar Public Service Commission website, there are 434 total vacancies for various posts in different departments of the government. 

The BPSC mains exam was supposed to be held on July 25, 26 and 28, but the dates were pushed to August since it clashed with UPSC civil services interviews. Besides pushing back the BPSC exams, the board also decided to extend the date for payment of the fee. The last date for fee payment was on June 24, 2020.
