What Is This Notice About?

The Uttarakhand Public Service Commission (UKPSC), Haridwar, has issued a notice extending the application deadline for the Tax and Revenue Inspector Examination-2026 (कर एवं राजस्व निरीक्षक परीक्षा-2026). This recruitment, originally advertised via Advertisement No. A-1/DR(TRI)/S-2/2026 (dated 15 July 2026), covers 29 vacant posts of Tax and Revenue Inspector in the Uttarakhand Palika (Centralised) Revenue Service, under the Urban Development Department, Government of Uttarakhand, to be filled through direct recruitment.

The original online application deadline was 04 August 2026.

Why Was the Deadline Extended?

Per the notice, due to excessive rainfall this year, candidates in the hilly and rural areas across the state faced network connectivity problems while filling their online application forms. Based on representations (प्रार्थना पत्र) received from affected candidates, the Commission has extended the last date for online application submission and fee payment to 18 August 2026.

The application link will be reopened on the Commission's website (psc.uk.gov.in) from 08 August 2026 to 18 August 2026.

Edit/Correction Window

For candidates who apply for this examination, an Edit/Correction link will be made available on the Commission's website starting 25 August 2026.
