In Hyderabad, protests break out following a young woman’s death amid worries about the postponing of the Group-II exams.

According to reports, a young woman committed suicide because she was upset over the TSPSC group II exam delay. Students gather to protest in Hyderabad near the Ashoknagar crossroads. On Friday night, Ashoknagar neighbourhood saw protests after a 23-year-old woman committed herself at a hoste. Marri Pravalika, a Warangal native, was reportedly studying for the Group-II exams while she was present in the hostel.

Following the suicide, groups of students and young people protested in Ashoknagar, claiming that Pravallika committed herself because she was upset about the cancellation of the Group-II exams.

Pravallika allegedly wrote a suicide note in which she begs her mother for forgiveness for being helpless.

The incident occurred within the Gandhinagar police jurisdiction, and when the police arrived in Ashoknagar, protests had already broken out and were gaining momentum by the time midnight rolled around.

In light of the upcoming Assembly elections in November, the TSPSC group II tests have just been delayed. The tests will now take place on January 6 and 7, 2024. The dates of these tests were November 2 and 3.

Because the exam dates fell on the same days as election notification dates, a postponement was required. The administration team will be quite busy with the election process.

More than 5.5 lakh students have enrolled to take the exam that will be held by the TSPSC to fill 783 group-II post vacancies.

The exam date has been moved due to the timing of election notice and the fact that the crucial administrative infrastructure will be occupied with election-related operations.

The TSPSC announced 783 Group-II openings in total, and 5,51,943 applicants applied.
