SSC CGL Exam 2025 Major Reforms
SSC Combined Graduate Level (CGL) is one of the most sought-after exams in India, conducted every year to recruit candidates for various Group B and C posts. This year, it was scheduled from August 13 to 28 to fill 14582 vacancies but was postponed due to technical glitches and administrative issues faced during the SSC Selection Post Phase 13 Exam. The CGL exam will now be conducted from 12th to 26th September 2025, with one single shift each day.
SSC CGL Exam Centres Within 100 KM of Candidate’s Address
Earlier, candidates often had to travel long distances—sometimes to other cities or even states—to appear for the exam. To address this issue, the Commission has now decided to allot exam centres within a 100-kilometre radius of the candidate’s address. Currently, around 80% of candidates are assigned nearby centres, but SSC aims to increase this number to over 90% in the upcoming exams.
