Dear student,

UPS means Under Privileged State.

It is a like a category, that includes the passout candidates from the states who do not have their own State Agricultural University (usually north Eastern regions).

For, the candidates of states who do not have any own state agricultural university, ICAR has made a provision of special UPS category seats for such students.
