MUMBAI, Oct. 31 -- Eligible candidates applying for the Maharashtra Public Service Commission's (MPSC) Judicial Magistrate First Class (JMFC) examination are being prevented from submitting their applications after a technical glitch on the commission's online portal wrongly flags them as 'Non-Eligible'.

Several candidates said the portal was displaying an incorrect eligibility status despite them fulfilling the prescribed criteria for the examination. The error is preventing them from proceeding with their applications, leaving them worried that they could lose the opportunity to appear for the examination because of a technical problem beyond their control. Aspirants said they have been repeatedly contacting the MPSC call centre over the past week, but have received no concrete solution.

"We have been trying to fill out the application for the past several days, but the portal is showing us as Non-Eligible even though we meet all the required conditions. Every time we contact the call centre, we are told that the issue will be resolved soon. But there has been no improvement so far," said a candidate. Another aspirant said the commission must act immediately as the November 7 deadline leaves candidates with little time to complete their applications once the technical issue is resolved. "If the technical problem continues, many eligible candidates may not be able to submit their applications. The commission should resolve the issue immediately and extend the deadline if required," the candidate said. When contacted, a senior MPSC officer, who did not wish to be named, said he had not received any complaint about the issue but would look into it....
