The SSC CGL age reckoning issue has caused a significant number of potential candidates to flood Twitter and other social media. The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has been asked by applicants to change the maximum age requirement for the SSC CGL exam 2023 from 1 August 2023 to 1 January 2023.
For the purpose of filling various Group 'B' and Group 'C' posts in various ministries and departments of the Government of India as well as several constitutional bodies, the SSC will hold the Combined Graduate Level Examination (SSC CGL 2023).
On 3 April 2023, the commission began accepting applications online. On the official website, ssc.nic.in, candidates can apply for about 7,500 openings till 3 May 2023.
The age restriction for various posts will be based on August 1, 2023, rather than January 1, 2023, in accordance with the SSC CGL announcement 2023. Candidates with ages ranging from 18 to 32 are eligible to apply.
Candidates who are currently enrolled in their final year of graduation are also welcome to apply, but they must meet all eligibility requirements by the deadline, which is 8 January 2023. However, applicants began asking the commission to change the age restriction and give an additional chance to applicants who do not meet the exam eligibility requirements due to the age cut-off date. On Twitter, #SSC_CGL_1JAN is trending.
