UP Police Constable Answer Key 2026

UP Police Constable Answer Key 2026 — a answer key release — is summarised below. The key figures are an application window closing 30 January 2026 and a fee of ₹500 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 31 December 2025 and close on 30 January 2026, giving candidates 31 days to complete the process. The 31-day window is comfortable, though last-day traffic still causes portal failures every cycle — applying in the first half avoids it. Fee payment closes on 30/01/2026 — note that this can fall on a different day from the form deadline, and an unpaid form is not a submitted form. A correction window is listed (31/01/2026 to 03/02/2026 Upto 06 AM), so errors in the submitted form can be fixed within that period rather than by re-applying. The exam is currently shown for 08-10 June 2026; 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: 10+2 Intermediate Exam Passed More Eligibility Details Read the Notification. 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.

Fee-paying categories are charged between ₹400 and ₹500, depending on category. 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.

Work out a provisional score from the official key before the objection window closes. Objections generally require a fee per question and supporting evidence, and are only worth raising where you can cite a source. Do not use unofficial keys circulating on social media to estimate cut-offs — they are frequently wrong on exactly the disputed questions.
