The government has reportedly urged the Union Public Service Commission to postpone the civil services preliminary examination, as there is presently no clarity on the syllabus.

Students have been protesting against the exam saying there is a need to change the second paper as it makes it difficult for people coming from rural areas of Hindi-speaking states to crack the exam.

The students argue that the questions asked in language comprehension skills are asked in English and no Hindi translations are provided. They want this to be changed.
