Cuttack: The Odisha Public Service Commission (OPSC) launched an automation system on Wednesday to provide detailed information about examinations and results to students.

OPSC chairman Laxmi Charan Patnaik said the new OPSC responsive web portal www.opsc.gov.in will provide a platform to link all the examination conducting authorities with the OPSC to ensure seamless flow and exchange of information, frequently asked questions (FAQ), compliance and grievances.

The portal will upgrade the existing application management system and support the comprehensive selection management system (CSMS).

Stating that the Commission will come up with a new mobile app to provide important CSMS functionalities to the stakeholders, Patnaik said several automated systems supporting the promotion and disciplinary concurrence and public grievances are in the final stage of completion.
