The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has uploaded the e-admit cards for the 2018 Civil Services Examination on its website www.upsc.gov.in. The examination will be held on June 3.

According to the UPSC, in case the photograph is not clear, blurred or not available on the e-admit card, candidates will have to carry two identical photographs for each session along with proof of identity, such as Aadhaar card, driving license, passport, voter ID and the printout of e-admit card to exam venue along with an undertaking.

"No paper admit card will be issued for this examination. In case of any discrepancy in the e-admit card, the same may be communicated to the commission immediately by email to uscsp-upsc@nic.in for taking the decision in the matter," an official statement said.

Candidates can submit their representations, if any, on the questions asked in the examination to the UPSC through the "Online Question Paper Representation Portal (QPRep)" by accessing upsconline.nic.in/miscellaneous/QPRep/ between June 4 and 10.

The UPSC also warned candidates against bringing mobile phones even in switched off mode, pager or any electronic equipment or programmable device or storage media like pen drive, smart watches or camera or blue-tooth devices or any other equipment or related accessories either in working or switched off mode capable of being used as a communication device and calculator to the exam hall.

"Any infringement of these instructions shall entail disciplinary action against the concerned candidates, including debarment from future examination/selection. Valuable/costly items and bags are also not allowed inside the examination venue," the UPSC stated.
