A day after losing its review petition in the High Court, the Odisha Public Service Commission (OPSC) has now decided to hold the Odisha Judicial Service (OJS 2015) Prelims examination afresh and announced it would conduct the preliminary examinations of OJS 2015 on September 6, 2015 as per the orders of the Court.

Setting aside the May 31 examination owing to question paper leak, the Orissa High Court on July 28 had directed the OPSC to hold the examinations afresh.

Notably, several OJS aspirants had moved the court seeking scrapping of the examination citing errors in the question papers. But, the OPSC challenged the order of the single judge bench in a writ appeal and a division bench headed by Chief Justice D H Waghela on Thursday upheld the earlier order.

Following this, the OPSC had decided to hold the examination for recruitment of 69 posts of civil judges in the State. Earlier, around 2000 aspirants had appeared at the examination in which as many as 26 out of 100 questions were either wrong, out of syllabus or contained typographical and grammatical errors.
