RAS Mains 2025: Students Ask for Postponement Due to Clashing Schedules

Byadmin

The Rajasthan Administrative Services (RAS) Mains 2025 exam is officially scheduled to take place on 17th and 18th June 2025. This is an important Sarkari exam conducted by the Rajasthan Public Service Commission (RPSC). However, many candidates across the state are now requesting the commission to shift the exam dates.

Why? Because there are many problems being faced by students due to overlapping events from the previous exam cycle. Let’s break it down in simple terms so you can understand what the issue is and what students are demanding.

Why Are Students Requesting a Postponement?

1. RAS 2023 Results and Interviews Are Not Over Yet

Many candidates who appeared for RAS 2023 are also trying their luck in the 2025 exam cycle. But the final round of interviews for RAS 2023 is still going on. The result has not been released, and students are still waiting to see whether they made it or not.

This is making it tough for many aspirants to focus properly on RAS Mains 2025 preparation. It’s difficult to move on to the next big exam when the previous one is still unfinished.

2. Short Time Between Prelims and Mains

Usually, students get around six months between Prelims and Mains to prepare. But this year, the Prelims happened in February 2025, and the Mains are in mid-June, which gives only about four months.

RAS is not a small exam – it has a vast syllabus that includes four descriptive papers. Many candidates are saying this is not enough time to get fully ready, especially when they also have job or family responsibilities to handle.

3. No Access to RAS 2023 Answer Sheets

Students who gave the 2023 Mains are still waiting to get access to their evaluated answer sheets. Without these, they don’t know what went right or wrong. It’s like preparing for the next exam without learning from your last one.

This has made many students feel underprepared, which is why they want more time before facing another tough paper.

4. Impact of Operation Sindoor on Preparation

Some students from border areas like Barmer and Jaisalmer are also facing problems due to Operation Sindoor, a military operation that led to communication issues and internet cuts. This disrupted their study plans for many days.

They feel it’s unfair to expect them to be equally prepared when their region went through such a situation. That’s another strong reason for asking RPSC to push the dates ahead.

What Actions Have the Students Taken?

The matter is not just being discussed online. On 27th May 2025, a large group of students held a peaceful march in Jaipur. They submitted a written request to the RPSC office asking for the Mains exam to be postponed.

They believe that the commission should give them more time to prepare properly. Many also say that the 2025 exam should happen only after the 2023 cycle is completely over — including results and joining formalities.

What Is the Current Plan for RAS Mains 2025?

As per the latest official updates, the exam is still scheduled for 17th and 18th June 2025. The paper pattern remains the same:

  • 4 Descriptive Papers:

    • General Studies Paper 1
    • General Studies Paper 2

    • General Hindi and English
  • Time: Each paper will be for 3 hours
  • Shifts: Two papers per day – one in the morning and one in the afternoon
  • Locations: Exam centers will be in cities like Jaipur, Jodhpur, Udaipur, Kota, Ajmer, Bikaner, Bharatpur, etc.

Will RPSC Change the Exam Date?

As of now, no official reply has come from RPSC. The exam dates remain unchanged. But students are hoping the commission will consider their request soon.

Many feel that rescheduling the exam by even one or two months could make a big difference in their preparation and confidence level.

Final Words

The demand to postpone the RAS Mains 2025 is coming from real struggles faced by aspirants. They are not asking to cancel the exam — just for a bit more time so they can give their best.

The RPSC has a big responsibility, not just to conduct exams on time but to do it in a way that supports fair chances for everyone.
