Thumb impression for TSPSC Group-IV exam

Further, the Commission instructed candidates to wear chappal only but not shoes to centres

Hyderabad: Candidates appearing for the Group – IV services recruitment examination scheduled for Saturday, July 1 must affix their thumb impression in the nominal roll instead of recording their biometric thumb impression. The thumb impression will be collected after handing over the OMR sheet to the invigilator in each session of the test.

The Telangana State Public Service Commission (TSPSC) has recently modified its decision of collecting the biometric thumb impression. “Candidates should affix their left thumb impression (any other finger impression if they do not have left thumb) in the space provided in the nominal roll at the end of the examination in each session after handing over the OMR sheet to the invigilator,” the Commission said.
