The 70th Combined Competitive Examination (CCE) schedule has been postponed by the Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) to December. Originally scheduled for November 17, the CCE's preliminary examination (PT) has been rescheduled for December 13–14, according to media reports.
For the delay, the BPSC cited the reason as 'unavoidable' in a letter to all District Magistrates. The commission further stressed the necessity of having enough district-level testing facilities to handle the anticipated surge of applicants, which is projected to be between seven and eight lakh.
According to the most recent notice, this exam will fill 1,957 vacancies across several Bihar government ministries.
