It has come to our notice that some online sites are spreading rumours by connecting this notification to the SSC CGL 2015 exam interviews. Candidates should not pay heed to such rumours. 

This notification is released by SSC’s Western Region and not by the SSC headquarters. Secondly, the notification is related to specific posts in Advertisement No. WR/01/2015 dated 21-27 March, 2015. SSC has never stated that this is applicable to any other exams held by SSC. 

As there is no official notification by SSC regarding SSC CGL 2015, there will be no changes in the pattern of SSC CGL 2015 exam as of now.
