The Public Service Commission had delayed the 35th Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS) preliminary tests by a month, reports bdnews24.com.

It will be held on Mar 6 instead of Feb 6.

Examinations Controller AEM Nesaruddin on Tuesday said complications over examination centres forced them to revise the date.

"Several examinations, including the SSC, are scheduled for February. We need over 200 examination centres.

"So, we decided to reschedule the tests," he told bdnews24.com.

A record 244,207 candidates have applied to take the tests to enter the civil service.
