UPPSC Expedites Legal Appeal to Release Engineering Prelims Result
The Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission has not yet released the Engineering Services Preliminary Examination-2024 result.
A court case must be settled before the result can be declared.
The case began after 42 candidates filed a petition.
A single judge of the Allahabad High Court gave a judgment on September 25, 2025.
UPPSC has appealed that judgment.
The Commission says deciding the appeal quickly is its top priority.
The case was listed for hearing on August 13, 2026, but the hearing did not happen that day.
UPPSC says it will release the result quickly after the court makes its decision.

The original petition was filed by 42 candidates concerning the preliminary examination result.
The case was listed among the Allahabad High Court’s top 10 daily cases on August 13, 2026, but its hearing was deferred.
