Hindustan Times3 days ago

New Delhi, The Union Public Service Commission is planning to open a "correction window" for candidates to rectify their mistakes in the application forms filled for the NDA & NA and CDS examinations to be held this year. UPSC likely to open 'correction window' to help candidates rectify mistakes in application forms
The correction window will open for three days and will be a one-time measure, according to the UPSC statement issued on Thursday.
Combined Defence Services exam-II, 2025 and National Defence Academy and Naval Academy -II, 2025, were notified on May 28 and will be held on September 14.
The UPSC said that this window would give an opportunity to the candidates to edit their details and make necessary corrections in the 'common application form' and 'examination application form.'
UPSC chairman Ajay Kumar said that the online portal provides repeated checks before the final submission of any application form.
"Despite that, apparently, some mistakes have been made by the applicants in attaching their documents and filling up their details. As the portal is new and applicants are filling the information for the first time, UPSC is giving an opportunity to correct and rectify any wrong information filled during the application process, as a one time measure," he said.
Kumar said the necessary software module to enable the correction window is being developed by the National Informatics Centre , and as soon as the same is ready and tested, it will be made available to the applicants.
"Those applicants who are interested in availing the correction window, may look for the announcement, on UPSC website, which would give details of exact dates. The correction window would be available for three days, as a one time measure only," he said.
The new online application portal was launched on May 28, replacing the old one time registration module.
The applications for the CDS and NDA & NA were accepted through the new portal.
The UPSC online application portal has four parts, arranged in four separate cards on the home page, three of which, namely, account creation, universal registration and common application form, contain information which is common to all examinations and can be filled anytime by the candidates, it said.
The fourth part is examination specific module and contains exam notices, application and applications status, the statement said.
UPSC online portal can be accessed at https://upsconline.nic.in.

Country's first honey beekeeping centre to be upgraded as museum

Kottayam: The country's first honey beekeeping centre in Thazhakkara panchayat in Mavelikkara, Alappuzha, will be upgraded to a museum soon. Local MLA M S Arun Kumar will submit a detailed project report before the state govt next week. The centre was inaugurated in 2018. Around 50,000kg of honey was procured from bee farmers and marketed under the name 'Amruth Honey'. This is also the first centre in the state where honey is made and sold after refining. The centre is on a three-acre plot and functions under the State Horticulture Products Corporation (Horticorp). Apart from rearing bees for honey, honey is also procured from bee farmers and treated scientifically before selling. Bee farmers are also given training. The centre has around 200 beehives and around two tonnes of honey is made yearly from these hives. The honey brought by the farmers is procured directly at rates fixed by the govt. Speaking to TOI, Kumar said the centre being turned into a museum will attract tourists as well. "Already, the centre is visited by bee lovers from across the country for studies and research about bees and different types of honey. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trading CFD dengan Teknologi dan Kecepatan Lebih Baik IC Markets Mendaftar Undo We are also planning to build a hostel for such people," he said.
