Police Constable Eligibility Checker
Select the department, enter your details and see if you meet the physical and educational standards for a police constable job. Values in the table below are approximate — always confirm with the official police recruitment advertisement.
Important: All criteria are approximate and change between recruitment rounds. This tool is a self-screening guide only, not an official decision. Confirm exact age, height, chest and education rules in the official police recruitment advertisement before applying.

How to use
- Select the department and gender, then enter your age, education, height and run time (chest is for male candidates).
- Press "Check My Eligibility" — each requirement is checked one by one with specific reasons.
- If your official advertisement has different numbers, edit the criteria table first and check again.
Good to know
- Eligibility criteria change between recruitment rounds — the official advertisement is the only final source.
- Besides physical standards, departments also run written tests, medical tests and background checks.
- Domicile requirements usually apply: you normally apply in your own district or province.
- If you are close to a limit, keep measuring and training — official measurement day decides, not this tool.
