Odisha Removes Attempt Limits for Civil Services Examination Across All Categories
The Odisha government has removed the category-based limits on the number of attempts for the Odisha Civil Services (OCS) examination, allowing eligible candidates to appear unlimited times, subject to age and other criteria. This amendment, approved at a cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi, replaces previous restrictions that capped attempts for General and SEBC categories. The change aims to provide fairer opportunities for aspirants and follows earlier announcements by the Chief Minister.
