The Board says it is not responsible for any lapse if you miss its website updates, and it will not entertain correspondence about rejected applications, changes after submission or a change of department or post after allotment. Candidates selected on their own merit without relaxed standards are placed against unreserved seats, not reserved ones. At the e-dossier stage you must give at least one department or post preference. A candidate who misses the preference window will not be considered. Once a candidate is allotted the first available preference as per merit, later preferences are not considered, and the preference is final and irreversible.
