The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) has delayed the announcement of the Assistant Engineer Competitive Examination 2025 results due to a stay order issued by the Patna High Court. This decision affects candidates who appeared for the Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical engineering posts. The commission has confirmed that the results will be published only after the ongoing legal process is resolved.
Legal Stay Halts Result Publication
The BPSC cited a court case linked to the notification issued under Memo No. 2079(S) dated March 9, 2026. The Patna High Court, in its order dated March 23, 2026, stayed this notification until further notice. This stay directly impacts the release of results for Advertisement Numbers 29/2025, 30/2025, and 31/2025 related to the Assistant Engineer examination.
The commission’s official notice quoted the court’s directive: "The notification contained in Memo No. 2079 (S) dated 09.03.2026 shall be stayed till further order." Since no subsequent order has lifted the stay, the BPSC has been compelled to hold back the results.
