The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) has announced a sudden change in schedule for a key recruitment examination, impacting thousands of aspirants. The written test for the post of Assistant Education Development Officer (AEDO), which was supposed to take place in early January next year, has now been deferred.
Official Notification and Reason for Postponement
In an official notification released on Monday, the Commission stated that the written examination for AEDO under Advertisement No. 87/2025 stands postponed. The test was originally scheduled to be conducted over several days, from January 10, 2026, to January 16, 2026, with an exception for January 14. The BPSC cited "unavoidable reasons" as the cause for this last-minute decision, though the specific details were not disclosed in the public notice.
What This Means for Candidates
This development directly affects all candidates who had applied and were preparing for the examination slated for next year. The Commission has assured that a revised date for the examination will be finalized and announced in due course. Crucially, all future updates regarding the new schedule will be communicated exclusively through the BPSC's official website. Aspirants are strongly advised to avoid relying on unofficial sources and to monitor the commission's portal regularly for the latest information.
Next Steps for Aspirants
While the postponement may disrupt study plans, it also provides candidates with additional preparation time. The key action point is to keep a constant watch on the BPSC website (bpsc.bih.nic.in) for the official announcement of the new dates. The notification confirms that this is a developing story, and more updates are expected to follow. Candidates should use this interim period to consolidate their preparation for the competitive exam.
