Exam Date Change Announcement

The Madhya Pradesh Employees Selection Board (MPESB) has announced a postponement of the Naib Tehsildar examination, which was initially set for November 14, 2026. The new date for the exam is now January 10, 2027, resulting in a delay of about two months. This change comes after repeated requests from the Patwari Association for an extension.

Purpose of the Examination

The MPESB released a notification on November 11, indicating that the examination is aimed at departmental employees, including Patwaris, clerical staff, and Revenue Inspectors (RIs). This test will facilitate promotions to the Naib Tehsildar position directly from the ranks of Patwaris and RIs. Employees had expressed concerns about insufficient preparation time, and the rescheduling provides them with the necessary time to prepare adequately.

Application Process Remains Unchanged

It is important to note that while the examination date has been altered, there will be no new application period opened by the MPESB. Candidates must adhere to the existing application rules and guidelines. For further details regarding the examination, candidates are advised to consult the official MPESB website.

Examination Guidelines

Candidates are required to present an original identity document at the examination venue. An e-Aadhaar will only be accepted if it has been verified by the UIDAI; those without an original ID will not be allowed to participate in the exam. Biometric verification using Aadhaar will be mandatory at both entry and during the examination. Candidates must arrive at the examination center before the designated reporting time. Additionally, items such as mobile phones, calculators, log tables, sunglasses, and other electronic devices are strictly prohibited. Once the exam begins, candidates will not be allowed to exit the examination hall until the test concludes.
