The Indian government has directed the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) to cancel its recent advertisement for lateral entry into the bureaucracy. This decision was communicated by Union Minister Jitendra Singh, who wrote to the UPSC chairman following directions from Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The move to cancel the advertisement comes amid political backlash from opposition parties and some allies of the ruling BJP.
