The Telangana government has decided to postpone the Group-2 exam to December. Originally scheduled for August 7 and 8, the exam was rescheduled by the Telangana State Public Service Commission (TGPSC) after candidates requested a change due to ongoing District Selection Committee (DSC) exams.
The decision to delay the Group-2 exam was made after discussions with candidates who wanted both the DSC and Group-2 exams rescheduled. There are 783 posts available in Group-2, and a total of 5.51 lakh candidates have applied for the exam. The new dates for the Group-2 exam will be announced soon by TGPSC.
Last year, TGPSC advertised 783 Group-2 posts across 18 departments. The application process took place from January 18 to February 16, 2023, attracting applicants from all over the state. This is the fourth time the Group-2 exam has been postponed for various reasons.
Postponing the Group-2 exam to December is a relief for candidates preparing for both the DSC and Group-2 exams. It is seen as a positive step to accommodate candidates’ requests and ensure a smooth examination process.
