SC clears UPSC’s plan to release provisional answer keys after prelims: Will it enhance transparency or add complexity?

The Supreme Court has approved the UPSC’s decision to release provisional answer keys immediately after the Civil Services Preliminary Examination. Candidates will now be allowed to raise objections before results are declared. This reform follows petitions by aspirants demanding transparency. The Court noted that the decision was made after careful deliberation. UPSC will finalise the keys through expert review, marking a significant shift from its previous policy of publishing answer keys after the entire exam cycle.
