UPSC Civils Exam New Rule: UPSC has brought a new rule for those applying for the Civil Services Exam. According to this rule, candidates applying for the Civil Services Prelims Exam will have to submit documents related to their age and reservation in advance.

Earlier, candidates used to submit their Age and Caste Certificates after qualifying in the Civils Prelims exam. But in 2025, UPSC has issued a notification applying new rules to those applying for Civils. IAS Probationary Officer Pooja Khedkar was accused of submitting false OBC and Medical Certificates and getting selected for IAS under the disabled quota. After this incident, she was suspended and a case is going on in the Supreme Court. To prevent such situations from arising again, a new rule has been brought to submit those documents before the preliminary exam.
