During the meeting, Somesh Kumar instructed that the strong room in charge, route officers, liaison officers, assistant liaison officers, and chief superintendents should be asked to ensure that they adhere to the instructions as per the checklist given by TSPSC.

“A special control room will also be set up in the office of the TSPSC. The hall tickets for the preliminary test (objective type), scheduled to be held on October 16 from 10.30 AM to 1.00 PM in all district centers, are hosted on the Commission’s Website https://www.tspsc.gov.in,” he said.

The Chief Secretary directed the Collectors to hold a press conference to sensitize the candidates about the Biometric feature introduced for the first time for this exam. The candidates should also be told to download the hall tickets and they should be told to reach the examination time much before the scheduled time so as to avoid last-minute delays.
