Re: Can woman candidates avail special general category age relaxation in UPSC exam(s)?

There is NO relaxation based on gender for UPSC.Relaxation in age and qualifying cut off is only applicable based on Caste or physically handicapped person.If you are General category or any other category,you will avail the same benefits as that of any other male candidates of your category.As you are from general category your age limit for Civil services would be 21-30years with 4 attempts and higher qualifying cut off than others.
