MPPSC Exams Record Barely 30% Turnout

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): The latest recruitment examination of the Madhya Pradesh Public Service Commission (MPPSC) recorded a turnout of only around 30 per cent candidates, raising concern among officials.

 The exam was conducted to fill 15 vacant posts of deputy director, principal grade-2 and assistant director.  Although 2,621 candidates had registered themselves, only about a third of them turned up to take the test.

This is not an isolated case of poor attendance. In fact, several recent examinations conducted by the MPPSC have seen a similar decline in participation. The State Engineering Services Exam held recently registered attendance of barely 55 per cent applicants.
