Lucknow: Lakhs of candidates who have dreamed of a government job in Uttar Pradesh have been disappointed once again. The Uttar Pradesh PGT Recruitment Exam 2022, for which the youth have been waiting for the last three years, has been postponed once again.
The Uttar Pradesh Education Service Selection Commission (UPESSC) has postponed the proposed examination on 18 and 19 June 2025, citing unavoidable administrative reasons. This information was given through a notification on the official website of the commission on Tuesday, 10 June 2025.
When will the exams be held?
According to the Dynamite News correspondent, this is the third time the date of the examination has been changed. Earlier this exam was to be held on 11 and 12 April, which was postponed, and the date of 20 and 21 June was fixed.
After this, it was changed once again, and it was announced to be held on 18 and 19 June, but now these dates have also been canceled. The commission has now expressed the possibility of conducting the examination in the interim week of August 2025.
The new date will be confirmed on the commission’s website, upessc.up.gov.in.
Resentment among candidates
It is worth noting that the application process for this recruitment started in June 2022. More than 4.5 lakh candidates had applied for 624 posts. But despite three years having passed, the examination has not been conducted yet.
In such a situation, the resentment among the candidates is increasing continuously.
Questions raised on the attitude of the commission and the government
Many candidates have raised questions about the indecisive attitude of the commission and the government. They say that the students who have been studying for a long time are getting affected mentally and financially.
Repeated postponement of the examination is not only lowering their morale but also increasing uncertainty about the future. Candidates have been advised to keep an eye on the official website of the commission, as information related to the new date of the examination and the admit card will be released there.
