What are students demanding about the MPSC PSI age limit?

Students are asking for a one-year relaxation to the MPSC PSI age limit and a postponement of the January 4 Group B prelims. They say a short extension will include candidates impacted by prior notices and give fair preparation time. The demand is backed by late-night protests in Pune.

Will the January 4 MPSC Group B prelim be postponed?

No official decision is public as of January 2. The commission could keep the date, announce a short deferment, or allow a one-time age relaxation with a brief application window. Check the MPSC website and verified social handles for updates, and keep study plans ready for both scenarios.

How could changes impact Maharashtra police recruitment?

A postponement or a fresh application window may shift shortlists, interviews, and academy intakes. That can move training schedules and district deployments. Clear timelines in the next two days would help control administrative costs and preserve staffing plans. A stable calendar reduces uncertainty for candidates and hiring units.

What should coaching centers do if PSI exam 2025 is delayed?

Offer bridge modules, extend batches, and schedule extra mock tests. Share clear refund or credit rules to limit disputes. Keep teacher hours flexible and watch daily footfall. Avoid deep discounts; focus on short, high-value add-ons. Maintain cash reserves for rent, salaries, and test venue commitments during the delay.
