CSE UPDATES-ROBOT 2.0

Prelims Result Update The prelims result, although prepared, has been put on hold for today. The reason is that UPSC is in the process of compiling authentic, source-based and legally sustainable references for the final answer key, particularly for those answers which were changed from the provisional answer key after expert review and candidate representations. It must be clearly understood that any change made from the provisional answer key cannot be left unsupported. Such changes must be backed by strong, substantive and legally defensible proof so that they can withstand scrutiny, including in a court of law. This compilation and verification process was underway. However, it has not yet been finalized with sufficient substantive proof for all such changes. Therefore, there remains a possibility that some answers may be reverted back to the original provisional answer key. If that happens, the final answer key may change, and consequently, the cutoff may also change. How many questions may be affected, to what extent changes may take place, and what the final decision will be, are matters yet to be determined by the Commission. For this reason, no result will be declared today, and the result has been put on hold for the time being. Let us wait for further developments in the coming days. All the very best.
