for the evaluation purposes. The candidate will be disqualified in case he or

There is
"Negative Marking" in the Prelims exam. For every wrong answer, 1/3rd
of marks allotted for every question will be reduced from the correct tally of
the score. So candidates need to be extra careful while making wild guesses in
the prelim exams.
