In a press statement released this week, the state institution announced that all security service applicants who encountered technical difficulties and could not complete their aptitude test will be given a second opportunity to sit for the examination.

The arrangement covers candidates in Categories A, B, and C, ensuring that no affected applicant is left out of the process.

While the intensive mop-up exercise for Category C applicants had already drawn significant public attention, the latest update extends the same consideration to Categories A and B, who experienced similar setbacks.

According to the statement, eligible candidates will retake the examination on March 1 and March 2, 2026. The Ministry emphasised that this measure is intended to guarantee fairness, transparency, and equal opportunity for all applicants.
