The Rajasthan Public Service Commission has postponed the RAS Preliminary Examination 2026 by one week to 6 December, citing administrative reasons. The exam was originally scheduled for 29 November. The Commission has also announced that the RAS Mains Examination will be held on 1 and 2 May 2027.

Only candidates who qualify in the Prelims will be eligible for the Mains. The official press note was issued on 2 July 2026. Candidates are advised to check the RPSC website for the detailed exam programme and admit card release.
Both kollegeapply.com and freejobalert.com act as bulletin boards for the RPSC notification, reporting the revised RAS Prelims date of 6 December 2026 and the Mains dates of 1 and 2 May 2027. kollegeapply.com leads with a candidate help table and adds steps to check the notice, while freejobalert.com includes a note that the vacancy count is not in this notice and lists several other RPSC exams with revised dates. Neither outlet speculates on the vague ‘administrative reasons’ given by the Commission, and neither takes a stance beyond neutral-report. The coverage is uniform straight reporting of the official press note. The Commission has not disclosed why it postponed the exam by one week, and the next concrete date is the Prelims itself on 6 December 2026.
