The Uttar Pradesh government has announced a major recruitment drive—called “UP Police Bharti 2025″creating a total of 23,763 job openings. This effort aims to boost the strength of the police force and offer meaningful career opportunities to many aspirants. Let’s break down the details in simple terms.
1. Total Vacancies (23,763 Jobs)
UP Police Bharti 2025: A Huge Opportunity for Agniveers and Others The first big news is the sheer number of positions being offered: 23,763 posts across roles like constables, PAC (Provincial Armed Constabulary), mounted police, and firemen. This massive intake shows the state’s commitment to improving public safety and law enforcement quickly2. Special Quota: 20% for Agniveers
Perhaps the most significant feature of this recruitment plan is the 20% reservation specifically for Agniveers those who have completed service under the Agnipath (Agniveer) scheme. This is a pioneering move by Uttar Pradesh, making it the first state in India to reserve such a large share of police jobs for Agniveers
Put simply, one-fifth of the new positions are set aside for ex-Agniveers, regardless of their category (General, SC, ST, OBC). This ensures their journey into civilian law enforcement roles is smoother and more accessible.
3. Age Relaxation for Agniveers
Agniveers also receive a 3-year age relaxation beyond the usual upper age limit. That means if you’re applying under this quota, you get extra years to meet the eligibility requirement. This aligns with benefits commonly provided to ex-servicemen and shows recognition of their prior service.
4. Why This Matters
- Millions benefit: Thousands of citizens now have a real chance to join the police force.
- Support for veterans: Agniveers, who finished a four-year military stint under Agnipath, get rewarded with a fair path to join state police. The quota and age relaxation significantly improve their chances.
- Recognition of service: This move acknowledges the training, discipline, and sacrifice of Agniveers. It sets a precedent for other states to follow.
5. Selection Process: What to Expect
To apply for these posts, candidates will most likely go through:
- A written exam
- A physical test, including fitness and endurance checks
- Document verification
- Possibly a medical exam, depending on the post
The exact process—and timing for registration, application deadlines, fees, etc.—will be shared soon by the Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment & Promotion Board (UPPRPB) on their official website. Keep an eye on their notices.Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment BoardSARKARI RESULT
