CIC Recommends Reinstating Publication of Detailed UPSC Civil Services Marks
The Central Information Commission (CIC) has recommended reinstating the publication of detailed paper-wise marks for Civil Services Examination candidates, a practice discontinued from 2018 without formal orders. The CIC highlighted conflicting claims between the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) and the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) regarding custody of these marks. The recommendation follows an RTI request seeking decade-long comparative data, emphasizing transparency and aiding candidates in assessing performance trends across subjects.
