3. If new announcement arrives in such a way that candidates can apply in any districts of UP and not restrcied to 5 districts, and if for each distrci they have to pay Rs. 500 then goverment will get a huge collection, but this is taken from UNEMPLOYED persons.

See a news published recently in Times of India (TOI) -

 Government earns fortune from TETALLAHABAD: The recent high court directive on the Teachers Eligibility Test (TET) is likely to open several options for the aspirants as far as posting is concerned. The high court has lifted the bar of five districts which a candidate had to give while applying for the said test. Further, it has quashed the advertisement for applying in five districts only.
Since the secondary board is yet to frame new guidelines and issue a new advertisement, it is still not clear how far it will benefit the about 2.75 lakh aspirants who have cleared this year's Teachers Eligibility Test (TET).
But TET has filled the coffers of the state government, particularly the education department. Through the entire process of selection, the government has earned about Rs 190 crore in terms of fee.
The examination was held on November 13 last at 1,150 centres across the state. About 11 lakh candidates appeared in the examination. Candidates who applied for a teaching job in the primary section were required to pay Rs 500 while an additional fee of Rs 500 was charged from those who also applied in the secondary section.
As per information, nearly all the candidates applied for both the sections which means every candidate paid Rs 1,000 as fee. Since 11 lakh candidates applied, the state government earned amount when multiplied comes to a whopping Rs 110 crore.
Out of these 11 lakh candidates, 2.75 lakh were selected through the exam. They are eligible to apply for a teaching job in both the sections.
The successful candidates were asked to deposit a fee of Rs 500 for each district in which they were applying. This entailed an additional expenditure of about Rs 3000 on each candidate in the light of the fact that after calculation of exchange rate on each draft combined with the speed post charges the amount came to around Rs 600 for each district.

If additional charges of speed post / draft making charges count, then cost to unemployed candidates is really heavy.
