# HPSC postpones Food Safety Officer screening test of 6 December 2026-11-12T22:57:00+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Outlets counted: adda247.com The Haryana Public Service Commission (HPSC) has postponed the Food Safety Officer (FSO) Screening Test 2026 that was scheduled for 6 December 2026. The postponement, announced on 12 November 2026, was cited as due to administrative reasons and applies to the 45 vacancies advertised under Advertisement No. 25/2026. The revised examination date has not been announced yet, it will be notified separately on the official HPSC website. Candidates are advised to continue their preparations and regularly check the website for the new schedule, admit card release, and examination instructions. The screening test, if conducted, will be a 100-mark, two-hour multiple-choice paper with negative marking. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The commission has not given a new date, so candidates cannot plan their exam schedule yet. The postponement disrupts the timeline for the Food Safety Officer recruitment drive, which aims to fill 45 posts. Applicants must watch the official HPSC website for the revised date, admit card release, and any pattern changes. ## Coverage - adda247.com Straight information bulletin, no slant on government or opposition.
