UPPSC veterinary exam sees 75.86% attendance for 404 posts
Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission (UPPSC) conducted the screening exam for the recruitment of veterinary officers on Saturday, 3 October 2026. The exam was held at six centres in Lucknow from 9:30 am to 11:30 am for 404 posts.
A total of 2,552 candidates had registered for the exam, of which 75.86 per cent appeared. The advertisement for the recruitment was issued in January 2026. Candidates who clear the screening will face an interview before final selection.
UPPSC Additional Secretary Onkar Nath Singh said the exam was conducted smoothly and with integrity, following all security standards and precautions. The result is expected within the next few months.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The 75.86 per cent attendance means over 600 registered candidates skipped the exam, and the total applicant pool of 2,552 is relatively small against 404 posts, a ratio of roughly six candidates per vacancy. This could indicate either narrow eligibility or limited interest. The commission has completed the screening, and the next steps, interview and final selection, will determine how quickly the posts are filled. The outcome rests on UPPSC's timeline for the result and subsequent interview schedule.
