Police re-exam details

The rescheduling was necessary because the UP Police constable exams, held earlier this year on February 17 and 18, had to be canceled due to a question paper leak. Over 48 lakh candidates had appeared for the exams, which were conducted in four shifts. The UP government ordered the exams to be rescheduled within six months, leading to the current changes.

The new police constable exams will be held in two shifts on August 23, 24, 25, 30, and 31, 2024. The shifts will run from 10 am to 12 noon and 2 pm to 5 pm.

Despite these changes, the Medical Officer Unani Screening Exam-2023 will proceed as planned on October 6, 2024. The revised dates for the other exams are now available on the official UPPSC website.
