PPSC said the change was necessary because of the recent floods in Punjab. Many districts were badly affected, and students struggled to prepare. The commission decided to give aspirants more time.

Only the preliminary exam date has been changed. Other parts of the recruitment schedule will continue as planned. PPSC will soon release more details, such as admit cards and exam centers, on its official website.

The rescheduled exam date is a relief for candidates in flood-hit areas. They now have extra time to prepare. Students are advised to check the PPSC website often for official updates.

State Congress chief Amrinder Singh Raja Warring said farmers have suffered long-term damage as both crops and soil were destroyed. He warned that without quick payments, the relief could become “another hoax.” He added that losses stand at about Rs 50,000 per acre, and damp soil will prevent wheat sowing for months. Farmers will also need more fertilisers to restore productivity.

Warring further accused the government of ignoring livestock losses worth lakhs. Opposition leader Partap Singh Bajwa rejected the AAP claim of granting the “highest-ever” relief, calling it false.

AICC Secretary Pargat Singh described the announced aid as “a drop in the ocean.” He demanded Rs 50,000 per acre for crops, Rs 1 lakh per acre for sugarcane, and a three-month waiver of VAT on diesel. He also criticised the Rs 4 lakh relief for families of flood victims as inadequate.
