Hyderabad: As a precautionary measure, the Telangana State Public Service Commission will be preparing fresh question papers for the upcoming recruitment examinations.

This comes following the question paper leak of the Assistant Engineers recruitment examination that was conducted on March 5.

As per the already announced tentative schedule, the computer-based recruitment tests for 22 posts of Horticulture Officer in the Horticulture Department and 113 posts of Assistant Motor Vehicle in the Transport Department are on April 4 and 23, respectively.

For these recruitment tests, fresh question papers will be prepared by the subject experts roped in by the TSPSC. “We will be preparing fresh question papers for the upcoming recruitment examinations. Although the recruitment exam schedule is tentative, candidates must continue their preparation as the exams will be held for sure,” sources said.

The commission has already postponed the recruitment examinations to 175 vacancies of Town Planning Building Overseer Municipal Administration and Urban Development Department scheduled for March 12 and 185 vacancies of Veterinary Assistant Surgeon in Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Department on March 15 and 16 due to the issue of question paper leak.
