Because of the less number of exam districts, the majority of the candidates’ centre will be in another district and it will require the candidates to travel inter-district. Majority of the candidates cannot afford the private cabs. In the absence of this economic capacity, it will compel them to take public transport. This will expose them to the higher possibility of getting infected with COVID-19.

The number of districts in the UPPSC PCS 2020 exam should be increased because there is a looming danger of coronavirus and the present number of exam centre districts will expose them to a higher danger of getting infected.
