Physical Fitness Tests in December

The AP Police Recruitment Board has confirmed that the long-delayed physical fitness tests for constable recruitment will finally commence in the last week of December 2024. This marks a significant step toward fulfilling the recruitment process that has faced multiple delays over the past two years.

Background of the Recruitment Process

The recruitment process began under the previous YSR Congress Party (YCP) government, which issued a notification on November 28, 2022, to fill the vacant police constable positions. However, the process was stalled due to legal challenges and state elections, delaying the subsequent stages of recruitment.

Key Highlights of the Process:

Preliminary Examination: Conducted on January 22, 2023, with 4,58,219 candidates appearing statewide.

Results Announcement: Results were released on February 5, 2023, with 95,208 candidates qualifying for the next stage.

Physical Tests Scheduled: Initially planned for March 13-20, 2023, but postponed due to the MLC constituency elections.

The recruitment process came to a standstill following these delays, leaving aspiring candidates in limbo.

Renewed Focus by the Coalition Government

The newly formed coalition government has prioritized filling vacancies across departments, including the police force. Recognizing the long-standing demand of constable aspirants, the APSLRB has committed to expediting the recruitment process.

As part of these efforts:

The board has reopened the application process for the physical fitness tests.

Arrangements are being made to ensure smooth conduct of the Physical Measurement Test (PMT) and Physical Efficiency Test (PET) for eligible candidates.
