This decision, as stated in the notification, is in line with clause (ii) of sub-rule (1) of rule 8 of the Jammu and Kashmir Combined Competitive Examination Rules, 2018, and has been approved by the Lieutenant Governor.

The notification specifies the maximum age limits for various categories of candidates as follows:

  1. Open Merit Candidates – The upper age limit for candidates in the open merit category is now 35 years.
