OUR CONCERN We would like to bring to your notice the GROSS INJUSTICE done to us (UPSC CSE 2015 candidates) by bringing changes to the examination process JUST THREE MONTHS before the exam. Here’s how we have been victims of INJUSTICE : • UPSC CSE Preliminary Examination have always consisted of two papers with a total of 270 questions (before 2011) and 180 questions( 2011-2014) to evaluate the merit of candidates . But this year (2015) one of the two papers was made only ‘qualifying’ in nature. This means that marks of this paper was not added to total marks to decide the selection . As a result only 100 questions were there to judge the merit of candidates which increased the uncertainty in the selection process to an unprecendented level. No examination in this country whether engg entrance exams, medical entrance exams,SSC, Bank PO,State PCS exams, and so on , decide merit on mere 100 questions and that too of same nature i.e only General Studies. This amounts to an absolute lack of appropriate criteria to judge the merit . If this is not INJUSTICE , then what else is? • Any changes in the selection process is the prerogative of the concerned authority. But if the change amounts to sheer INJUSTICE, then its our right to voice our concern in a democracy. A mammoth change was introduced by scrapping 50% of the sylllabus by making it merely ‘qualifying’ , just “ THREE MONTHS “ before the examination. How can one adapt to such a huge change at such short notice for an exam which needs AT LEAST ONE YEAR of preparation by one and all. If this is not INJUSTICE , then what else is? • There were several candidates who had exhausted all their attempts due to far-fetched changes introduced in the exam process since 2011. As a compensation, they were given an extra attempt this year. But introducing changes just THREE MONTHS before the exam marred their chances . So giving an extra attempt was made null and void by brnging such changes. If this is not INJUSTICE, then what else is? WHAT DO WE WANT ? In the wake of the GROSS INJUSTICE done to us ( UPSC CSE 2015 aspirants), we request/demand AN EXTRA ATTEMPT for all of us who appeared in 2015. This is the least correction that can be done to address the great harm done to us which have put in us deep turmoil and despair. Also, any changes in the examination process must be informed to us at least one year before the examination to give us ample time to adapt to the changes. Our demands would not lead to any law &order problem, nor would lead to any burden on the state exchequer, neither would it harm the interests of anyone. It would only lead to betterment of all those who want to serve the nation .It conforms to the core principles of DEMOCRACY. Hope democracy wins again.
