This test cycle also witnessed the pilot introduction of laptop-based testing and Aadhaar-based face verification, ensuring greater identification security. Tests were held even in far-flung places like Leh and Kavaratti in Lakshadweep, while 93% of the candidates were seated in their chosen cities.

The Commission also cited instances of malpractice, such as misuse of PwBD provisions and remote access attempts. Aspirants with established malpractice will be debarred for life, while those with doubtful evidence can still write the re-exam on October 14.
