The UPSC told the Supreme Court Monday that a petition from three people who had passed the UPSC 2021 prelims exam but couldn't take all of the main exam because they had COVID-19 and want another chance to take the exams. The issue is "very complicated."

Petitioners want the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) to give them another chance to take the exam. If that doesn't work, the petitioners say they should make some kind of plan to take the rest of the exams before the results come out.

The lawyer for the UPSC told the Supreme Court that he needs to get permission and put all the facts in writing before he can make a decision.

"I think this is an issue that is very, very hard to figure out." The UPSC's lawyer told a bench of Justices A M Khanwilkar and C T Ravikumar that he thinks he needs to get permission and put all of the facts before them before making a decision. Bench said, the case will be heard on March 21 and affidavits from both sides must be filed by that date.

Because COVID kept one of the three petitioners from taking the main exam, which ran from January 7 to 16, from going through, two of them had to leave in the middle of the exam.
