Description
The Madhya Pradesh Employees Selection Board (MPESB) has announced the postponement of the second shift of the Combined Recruitment Examination 2026 for Forest Guard, Field Guard, Jail Prahari, and Assistant Jail Superintendent posts. The examination, originally scheduled for June 7, could not be conducted due to technical difficulties.
The board has now fixed June 20, 2026, as the new date for the affected examination. The re-exam will be held during the first shift from 10:00 AM to 12:00 Noon.
Revised Examination Schedule
MPESB clarified that the disruption impacted only the second shift conducted on June 7. The first shift examination was completed successfully without any issues.
| Event | Date and Time |
Original Exam (Cancelled) | June 7, 2026 – Second Shift |
Rescheduled Exam | June 20, 2026 |
Examination Timing | 10:00 AM to 12:00 Noon |
Fresh Admit Card Mandatory
Candidates whose examination was postponed will need to download a new admit card before appearing for the rescheduled test.
The revised hall ticket will be available through the official MPESB portal. Candidates must log in using their credentials to access and download the document.
On the examination day, candidates should carry:
Newly issued MPESB admit card
Original photo identity proof
Any additional documents specified by the board
Entry to the examination centre may be denied if the required documents are not produced.
Recruitment Drive for 1,111 Vacancies
The recruitment examination is being conducted to fill a total of 1,111 positions across multiple departments. The vacancies include:
Forest Guard
Field Guard
Jail Prahari
Assistant Jail Superintendent
The overall recruitment examination process commenced on June 4 and will continue as scheduled for other candidates until June 19.
Technical Issue Led to Exam Disruption
Reports indicate that many candidates had already reached their allotted examination centres, including centres in districts such as Satna, when the issue occurred.
Due to a server-related technical problem, the second shift examination could not begin as planned. Candidates reportedly waited for several hours before being officially informed about the cancellation and subsequent rescheduling of the test.
The incident caused inconvenience to several applicants, particularly those who had travelled from distant locations to appear for the examination.
Candidates Advised to Monitor Official Updates
MPESB has urged affected candidates to regularly check the official website for information related to fresh admit cards, examination instructions, and any further announcements regarding the rescheduled test.
