MP Police Constable (GD) Recruitment 2026 Overview

Selection has two stages: an online written exam conducted by MPESB, followed by a Physical Efficiency Test (PET) and document verification conducted by the Police Department.
MP Police Constable (GD) Important Dates

MP Police Constable (GD) Vacancy 2026
- A total of 7,500 posts are on offer across two cadres:
- Within each cadre, posts are further split by category as follows (based on the clearly stated sub-totals in the notification):
- Note on the source document: The official notification also gives a detailed vertical-category (UR/SC/ST/OBC/EWS) numeric breakup within each of the rows above, presented in a multi-column table with provisional and adjusted calculation columns. This part of the table did not extract cleanly from the source PDF, so exact category-wise post numbers are not reproduced here - candidates should verify the precise UR/SC/ST/OBC/EWS split for their category directly from the official notification. The overall vertical reservation percentages (see Reservation section below) do apply to the total vacancies.
MP Police Constable (GD) Qualification
MP Police Constable (GD) Other Eligibility Conditions
- The applicant must be a citizen of India.
- As per government orders, an applicant with more than 2 living children, where one child was born on or after 26 January 2001, is not eligible for appointment (with an exception if one child is living and 2 or more children are born in a subsequent single delivery).
- All required certificates (age and age relaxation proof, education, Home Guard/Ex-servicemen proof, and, where applicable, a Certificate of Identity for transgender persons issued by the District Magistrate) must be held by the candidate as on 6 October 2026 and produced at the time of document verification during the physical test.
- Persons with disabilities are exempt from applying to the Police Department, as per Home (Police) Department circular No. एफ-2(अ)/541/92/ब(4)/दो dated 4 April 1995.
- The Police Department, and not MPESB, verifies candidates' certificates during the recruitment process; eligibility in the computer-based online exam is therefore provisional until document verification.
- All applicants must have live registration at a Madhya Pradesh State Employment Office.
- Candidates who are not permanent domicile residents of Madhya Pradesh may apply only under the Unreserved (Open) category and are not eligible for any reservation or age relaxation benefit; their maximum age as on 6 October 2026 must not exceed 33 years.
MP Police Constable (GD) Age Limit
- Age is calculated as on 6 October 2026, the cut-off date specified in the notification. The minimum age for all applicants is 18 years. Maximum age varies by category as follows:
- These age relaxations and reservations apply only in reference to Madhya Pradesh domicile; applicants from other states are eligible only under the conditions prescribed for the Unreserved category, as stated in the notification.
MP Police Constable (GD) Age Relaxation
- Vikram Puraskar (Vikram Award) awardees, Madhya Pradesh domicile: up to 5 years' relaxation in maximum age.
- Inter-caste marriage couples recognised under the SC/ST/OBC Welfare Department's Inter-caste Marriage Incentive Scheme: up to 5 years' relaxation for the higher-caste spouse, subject to producing the marriage registration and caste certificates before the application submission date.
- Ex-servicemen: the actual period of earlier defence service is deducted from age, provided the resulting age does not exceed the maximum age limit by more than 3 years.
- Retrenched government employees: up to a maximum of 7 years' relaxation for prior temporary service, provided the resulting age does not exceed the maximum age limit by more than 3 years, and provided the application is made within 3 years of retrenchment.
- Where a candidate has more than one basis for age relaxation, only the single basis giving the maximum benefit will be applied; incentive-based relaxations are in addition to general relaxations.
- Nagar Sainik (Home Guard) volunteers and non-commissioned officers must have completed 3 years of active service in these posts as on 6 October 2026; those removed for indiscipline, misconduct, unfitness, or desertion are not eligible for this category or its age relaxation.
- No age relaxation is available to serving or former employees of the Central Government or other State Governments beyond what is expressly provided in these rules; similarly, contract/honorary workers such as Shiksha Karmi or Panchayat Karmi are not eligible for age relaxation.
- Candidates are advised to check whether they satisfy the prescribed age limit before applying. Use our online Age Calculator to calculate your exact age instantly.

MP Police Constable (GD) Application Fee
- Fee can be paid via credit card, debit card, or net banking when applying directly online, or in cash through an authorised MP Online kiosk. There is no examination fee for candidates applying against backlog vacancies under direct recruitment, as stated in the notification.
MP Police Constable (GD) Selection Process
- Selection is conducted in two stages:
- Stage 1 – Written Online Examination (conducted by MPESB): An objective-type (MCQ) computer-based exam in Hindi/English, of 100 marks and 2 hours' duration, with 100 questions. One mark is awarded for each correct answer; there is no negative marking for wrong or unattempted questions. The paper covers: General Knowledge & Reasoning (40 marks), Intellectual Ability & Mental Aptitude (30 marks), and Science & Simple Arithmetic (30 marks), at a difficulty level equivalent to Class 8 of the MP Secondary Education Board.
- Stage 2 – Physical Efficiency Test (PET) and Document Verification (conducted by the Police Department): Based on the written exam cut-off percentile for each vertical category, candidates numbering up to 7 times the advertised vacancies in that category are called for the PET. The PET consists of an 800-metre race, long jump, and shot put, carrying a maximum of 100 marks (40 for the race, 30 each for long jump and shot put). Candidates must score a minimum of 30% (30 out of 100) in the PET to qualify. The shot put weight is 7.26 kg for men and 4.00 kg for women. One attempt is given for the 800m race, and three attempts each for long jump and shot put. Relaxed physical standards apply for Home Guard and Ex-servicemen candidates. The complete PET scoring charts (marks corresponding to each timing/distance) are published in the official notification.
- The final merit list is prepared by combining the written exam score (normalised using MPESB's prescribed Normalised Equi-Percentile/T-score methodology, since the exam is held in multiple shifts) with the PET marks, for candidates who meet the minimum qualifying PET marks. Document/certificate verification of all original certificates is mandatory at the PET stage; a candidate found ineligible at this stage will not be selected even if successful in both the written exam and PET.
MP Police Constable (GD) Physical Standards (Special Armed Force cadre only)
MP Police Constable (GD) Physical Standards (Non-SAF cadres)
- Where the chest measurement exceeds the minimum, an expansion of at least 5 cm is mandatory. No relaxation is given in physical measurement standards at any stage. Medical standards checked by the District Medical Board include height, chest expansion (male candidates), visual acuity (not less than 6/9 in the better eye and 6/12 in the other eye without glasses, with normal colour vision), and the absence of knock-knee, flat feet, or any physical deformity.
