# BPSC 72nd CCE Prelims Postponed Again, Fresh Date Awaited 2026-10-07T14:10:17+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) has postponed the 72nd Combined Competitive Examination (CCE) Preliminary scheduled for 25 October 2026, marking the second delay. A revised date has not been announced yet. Originally set for 25 July 2026, the exam was first rescheduled to 25 October. Candidates are now waiting for the commission's next official notification on the new date, admit cards, and exam centre details. The 72nd CCE is conducted to recruit for Group A and Group B administrative posts in the Bihar government. Meanwhile, BPSC announced the 70th CCE result on 19 June 2026, shortlisting a record 2,027 candidates. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The repeated postponement of the 72nd CCE Prelims leaves lakhs of candidates in limbo, with no fresh date or admit card schedule announced. BPSC has not given a reason for the second delay, which compounds uncertainty for aspirants who have already seen the exam pushed back once from July to October. The commission's silence on a revised timeline means candidates can only monitor the official website for updates. A concrete next step, such as a targeted date for the notification, would help ease the uncertainty. ## Coverage - timesnownews.com Leads with the postponement fact, no government or commission criticism.
