# MPSC extends affidavit deadline on exam irregularities to Nov 23 2026-11-14T09:06:19+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Outlets counted: hindustantimes.com The Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) Examination Inquiry Commission has extended the deadline for submitting affidavits on alleged irregularities in nine examinations by a week, from November 16 to November 23. The extension was granted in view of the Diwali holidays, the commission said. Individuals, candidates and students with information about alleged question paper leaks and answer key leaks can submit their statements in the prescribed affidavit format, in Marathi or English, until the new deadline. Applicants must provide a valid identity proof and self-attested copies of supporting documents, and email copies to complaints.inquirycomm@mpsc.maharashtra.gov.in. The commission has clarified that affidavits submitted after November 23 will not be accepted. For assistance, applicants can contact the commission on 022-20867677. ## Indian Opinion Analysis The extension to November 23 gives candidates affected by the nine tainted exams a full week beyond the Diwali break to file evidence. By setting a firm cut-off and requiring both physical and emailed copies, the commission is trying to close the submission window cleanly. The next step will be the commission's own assessment of the affidavits it receives by that date. ## Coverage - hindustantimes.com Straight news agency-style reporting of the deadline extension and procedure.
