The Manipur Public Service Commission (MPSC Manipur) has issued the exam schedule and the provisional eligible and rejected lists for the post of Assistant Engineer / Manager in various Departments under the Government of Manipur, under Notification No. 7/1/2026-MPSC(DR). Candidates searching for the MPSC Manipur AE admit card 2026 should note the sequence the Commission has laid out: the written examination will be held on 6 and 7 November 2026, provisionally eligible applicants must select their preferred examination centre between 16 and 22 October 2026, and the e-Admit Card will be available for download from 29 October 2026 onwards. The schedule notice was issued at Imphal on 8 October 2026, with reference to Notification No. 7/1/2026-MPSC(DR) dated 18 April 2026, and the lists notice was issued at Imphal on 14 October 2026. The recruitment covers 130 posts of Assistant Engineer / Manager. In short, the MPSC Manipur Assistant Engineer / Manager admit card 2026 is not a single date to remember but a three-step timeline — centre selection first, then the e-Admit Card, then the two-day written examination.

For candidates searching for the MPSC Manipur AE exam date 2026 and the MPSC Manipur AE exam schedule, the written examination runs over two days with separate papers for Civil Engineering and Electrical Engineering candidates. Day 1, 6 November 2026 (Friday), carries Section-I Objective Papers: the General Ability Test from 09:00 AM to 11:00 AM, followed by the branch Paper-I from 12:00 Noon to 02:00 PM and the branch Paper-II from 03:00 PM to 05:00 PM. Day 2, 7 November 2026 (Saturday), carries Section-II Conventional Papers: the branch Paper-I from 09:00 AM to 12:00 Noon and the branch Paper-II from 02:00 PM to 05:00 PM. Civil Engineering candidates appear on both days with Civil Engineering papers, and Electrical Engineering candidates follow the identical structure and timings on the same two days with Electrical Engineering papers in place of the Civil papers. The General Ability Test is held on 6 November only. Candidates should therefore read the MPSC Manipur AE exam timing for their own branch and session from the schedule, since the paper and the timing change across the five sessions of the two days.

The next search most candidates make after the exam date is the MPSC Manipur AE exam centre selection, and this is the step with the tightest deadline. Provisionally eligible applicants must select their preferred Examination Centre on the official centre-selection page between 16 October 2026 and 11:59 PM of 22 October 2026. The three available centres are MPSC Exam Hall, Imphal; D.C Office, Senapati; and D.C Office, Churachandpur. The centre finally allotted to a candidate will be mentioned in the e-Admit Card, so the selection made in this window decides the centre printed on the admit card. Candidates should not wait for the last hours, because the window closes at 11:59 PM on 22 October. After the window closes, the allotted centre is checked on the e-Admit Card, which is available from 29 October 2026 onwards.

Before selecting a centre, candidates need to answer the MPSC Manipur AE eligible list question — whether their application is provisionally eligible. The lists notice dated 14 October 2026 publishes two annexures: the provisional eligible list is Annexure-I, and the rejected applicants list is Annexure-II, with the reason stated against each Application ID. One reason observed in the list is "Lacks Essential Qualification", along with close variants. Candidates should open the official lists notice PDF, search for their Application ID in Annexure-I, and, if their Application ID appears in Annexure-II, read the reason stated against it in that list. Only provisionally eligible applicants in Annexure-I should complete the centre selection described above. This post does not reproduce any roll numbers, Application IDs, or candidate lists, so every candidate should check their own status directly in the official lists PDF linked below.

Finally, for the MPSC Manipur AE admit card download itself: from 29 October 2026 onwards, candidates should visit the official MPSC Manipur website, open the e-Admit Card download link for the Assistant Engineer / Manager examination, download the e-Admit Card, and check every detail on it — name, the allotted examination centre, and the session timings. A clear printout of the e-Admit Card should be kept safe for the exam days, and the Important Instructions printed in the e-Admit Card should be read carefully, since they carry the further exam-day details. Two rules from the notice deserve special attention. First, candidates who do not possess the e-Admit Card will not be permitted to appear in the examination — no e-Admit Card means no entry. Second, the gates close exactly 10 minutes before the scheduled commencement of each session, so candidates should plan to reach well before that and factor in traffic jams, weather, vehicle breakdown, and parking space when planning the journey to the centre. The centre to report at is the centre printed on the e-Admit Card.
