The MPPSC is not taking regular exams after 2018. In 202o the commission has put new MPPSC Prelims Syllabus as well as Mains syllabus on the website. The main reason behind the change was the old MPPSC Prelims Syllabus was very narrow and limited. Although the new MPPSC Prelims Syllabus has comprehensive and easy to understand hope the paper will also come according to this syllabus. The comparison of old to the new syllabus you can find here
