UPSC Civil Services English exam 2013
The English essay paper of 100 marks in the 2013 Civil
Services Main Examination, which raised a nationwide controversy, has been dropped and the earlier practice of
two qualifying papers in any Indian language and English restored.
The essay paper would now be of 250 marks to be written in the medium or language of the candidate’s choice.
As before, the candidates would be allowed to use any one language from the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution or English as the medium of writing the examination.
The controversial conditionality imposed by the UPSC that language would be allowed as the medium of examination only if a minimum of 25 candidates wanted it, has been dropped.
