Uttar Pradesh Education Service Selection Commission (UPSESSB) has postponed the written exam for the post of Post Graduate Teacher (PGT) 2025 again due to unavoidable reasons. The new dates for the exam will be announced soon, says the board.

As per the schedule, the UP TGT exam 2025 will be held on December 18 and 19, and the UPTET exam will be held on January 29 and 30.
A user on X raised a question on the board regarding the exam schedule and said: "What's happening, brother, regarding the TGT PGT EXAM in UP? What is the government's intention, unable to conduct an exam from 2022 till now?"
"The UP PGT exam scheduled for 15 and 16 October 2025 has been postponed due to unavoidable reasons. In the BJP government, if anyone has been pushed to the margins the most, it's the students," another user posted on X.
