SSC CGL Photo Reject Kyun Hoti Hai? 7 Common Reasons
SSC CGL, CHSL, MTS ya kisi bhi SSC exam ka form fill karte waqt photo rejection sabse frustrating experience hota hai. Portal clearly nahi batata ki exactly kya galat hai — bas "photo invalid" ya "file not accepted" message aata hai.
Yahan 7 most common reasons hain aur unka direct fix:
1. File Size Too Large
Reason: SSC portal maximum 50KB accept karta hai. Mobile camera ki photo 2MB–8MB hoti hai.
Fix: Compress to 50KB tool use karo — automatically sahi size mein compress kar dega.
2. Wrong Dimensions
Reason: SSC ke liye exact dimension: 3.5 cm × 4.5 cm (approximately 413 × 531 pixels at 300 DPI).
Fix: SSC Photo Resize tool — pre-set dimensions ke saath.
3. Wrong Background Color
Reason: SSC white ya light-colored plain background maangta hai. Colorful ya patterned background se rejection hoti hai.
Fix: Background remove tool se background replace karo.
4. File Format Wrong
Reason: SSC only JPG/JPEG accept karta hai. PNG, WEBP, HEIC rejected ho jaate hain.
Fix: SarkariPixels ka koi bhi tool download karte waqt automatically JPG mein convert kar deta hai.
5. Face Not Clearly Visible
Reason: SSC ke guidelines mein face 70-80% of the frame hona chahiye. Full body ya half body photo reject hoti hai.
Fix: Passport-size crop use karo — Free Crop tool.
6. Photo Too Old or Not Recent
Reason: SSC notification mein usually "recent passport-size photograph" mention hota hai — generally 3-6 months se purani photo accept nahi hoti.
Fix: Fresh photo click karo — clear daylight mein, plain wall background ke saath.
7. Blurry or Low Resolution
Reason: WhatsApp se download ki gai ya forwarded photos quality lose kar deti hain. 300 DPI se kum resolution ka photo portal reject karta hai.
Fix: Original camera photo use karo, WhatsApp compressed version nahi. DPI check ke liye DPI Converter tool.
