UP Police Constable Syllabus 2024

UP Police Constable Syllabus 2024 is a syllabus and exam pattern update covered on this page. The key figures are an application window closing 16 January 2024 and a fee of ₹400 for unreserved candidates. Everything below — dates, eligibility, fee and the official links — is set out in the order you will need it.

Police recruitment combines a written examination with physical measurement and efficiency tests. The physical standards are eliminative and differ by gender, category and sometimes by region, so confirm which set applies to you before committing preparation time.

Applications open on 27 December 2023 and close on 16 January 2024, giving candidates 21 days to complete the process. At 21 days this is a normal-length window, but the fee and upload steps are the ones that fail late, so leave a few days of margin. A correction window is listed (17-20 January 2024), so errors in the submitted form can be fixed within that period rather than by re-applying. The exam is currently shown for 17-18 February 2024 (Cancelled); treat this as provisional until the admit card confirms it.

The age limit runs from 18 to 25 years for unreserved candidates. That is a 7-year band, so candidates near either edge should confirm the exact cut-off date the notification measures age against — it is usually a fixed reference date, not the date you apply. On qualifications, the notification states: Passed 10+2 (Intermediate) Exam in Any Recognized Board in India. If your degree is an equivalent under a different name, look for the equivalence clause in the official PDF before paying the fee — a form rejected for a qualification mismatch is not usually refundable.

All fee-paying categories are charged the same ₹400. Payment is accepted via debit card, credit card, net banking, and offline bank challan. Pay only through the official portal linked on this page; the fee is normally non-refundable once the form is submitted.

This recruitment carries physical standards (height 168 CMS — 160 CMS — 152 CMS — 147 CMS, chest 79-84 CMS — 77-82 CMS — NA — NA, and running 4.8 KM in 25 Minute — 2.4 Km in 14 Minute). Physical tests are usually qualifying rather than scored, but they are eliminative — candidates who clear the written stage and then fail PET/PST are removed from the process entirely. Measure yourself against these figures before you invest preparation time, and check whether relaxed standards apply to your category or region in the official notification.

Map the syllabus against the marking scheme rather than reading it as a flat list — most recruitment exams concentrate marks in a few sections, and preparation time is better spent proportionally. Where previous-year papers for the same exam family exist, they are a more reliable guide to depth than the syllabus headings alone.
