Below is the complete breakdown of vacancies, eligibility, physical standards, documents, and the application steps.

About Punjab Police

Punjab Police is the provincial police force of Punjab, Pakistan — one of the oldest and largest police organizations in South Asia, headquartered at the Central Police Office in Lahore and headed by the Inspector General of Police Punjab. It maintains law and order, prevents and investigates crime, and protects citizens across every district of the province.

The force recruits its constabulary through district-level drives like this one, with training at regional Police Training Colleges. A constable career offers permanent government service with structured promotion — from Constable to Head Constable, Assistant Sub-Inspector, and beyond.

Eligibility Criteria

Educational Qualification

The minimum qualification is Matriculation, with the marks bar set by domicile area: Matric with at least 50% marks for the settled areas of Rahim Yar Khan and Rajanpur; a Matric pass for Rajanpur’s tribal (de-excluded) areas; Matric with at least 33% marks for Tehsil Rojhan domicile holders. Driver Constable applicants need Matric plus a valid LTV licence. No relaxation is allowed — match your certificate marks against your area’s requirement before applying.

Experience Required

Constable and Lady Constable posts are open to fresh candidates with no prior experience. Only the Driver Constable post carries an experience condition: a valid LTV licence plus at least two years of driving experience after obtaining it, with driving, technical, and highway code tests in selection.

Age Limit

Age is counted as of 31 October 2026: 18–22 years for settled areas of Rahim Yar Khan and Rajanpur, 18–25 years for Rajanpur’s tribal (de-excluded) areas, 18–30 years for Tehsil Rojhan domicile holders, and 21–30 years for Driver Constable. Ex-servicemen qualify if (present age minus years of service) is 22 or less, present age does not exceed 40, and retirement was no more than two years ago; those removed on disciplinary or medical grounds are ineligible. No further age relaxation applies.

Gender

Both men and women can apply, with 15% of constable posts reserved for women (Lady Constables). Minimum height: men 5 ft 7 in (settled) or 5 ft 5 in (tribal areas and Tehsil Rojhan); women 5 ft 2 in (settled and tribal) or 5 ft 1 in (Tehsil Rojhan). Chest (men only): 33 x 34.5 in settled, 31 x 32.5 in tribal areas and Tehsil Rojhan. No relaxation in height or chest standards.

Salary and Benefits

All 1,170 posts are in BPS-7 with prevailing allowances. As Punjab government employees, selected constables receive the basic pay of the grade plus the standard admissible allowances — such as house rent, conveyance, and medical allowances — along with annual increments and any ad-hoc relief announced by the government. The department has not published a consolidated monthly figure, so treat any salary numbers circulating on social media with caution and rely on the official advertisement.

Beyond pay, a Punjab Police career brings the full package of provincial government service: permanent employment with pension benefits, free medical treatment in government hospitals, uniform and kit issued by the department, training at a Police Training College, and a clear promotion ladder. For candidates from Rahim Yar Khan and Rajanpur, posting within the home district is a significant practical advantage.

How to Apply

This is a paper application — there is no online form for this round. Follow these steps in order, because an incomplete form is rejected:

1. Download the prescribed six-page application form from the official Punjab Police website, www.punjabpolice.gov.pk, and print all pages.
2. Fill in the form with a ballpoint pen. Tick your area correctly (settled, tribal, or Tehsil Rojhan) and mark any quota you are claiming (women, ex-servicemen, or minority).
3. Attach three attested photocopies each of your educational certificates, domicile, CNIC, and character certificate. Driver Constable candidates must also attach their LTV driving licence, and ex-servicemen must attach three attested copies of their discharge certificate.
4. Attach eight attested passport-size photographs, and paste one photograph on the application form itself.
5. Sign the affidavit printed in the form and add your thumbprint — the form is not accepted without it. The affidavit asks about any FIR, arrest, or case against you, and a false statement leads to disqualification and possible legal action.
6. Submit the completed form at the District Police Lines of your domicile district between 12 and 31 October 2026, pay the Rs. 300 form fee, and collect your receipt. Use one form per post. Government employees must route their form through their department with a No Objection Certificate, and candidates claiming a police family quota must attach the relevant proof.

Required Documents Checklist

Prepare the following before you visit the Police Lines:

• Printed six-page application form, duly filled and signed
• Matriculation certificate and result card (marks as required for your area)
• Domicile certificate of Rahim Yar Khan, Rajanpur, tribal area, or Tehsil Rojhan — must match the post applied for
• Valid CNIC of the same district
• Character certificate (apply for it early — it is a mandatory document)
• Eight attested passport-size photographs (one pasted on the form)
• LTV driving licence (Driver Constable only) with proof of two years’ driving experience
• Discharge certificate (ex-servicemen only) — three attested copies
• No Objection Certificate (serving government employees only)
• Police family quota proof (where claimed)

Selection Procedure

Selection is merit-based and runs in stages: height and chest measurement, then the 1.6 km running test (men 7 minutes, women 10 minutes). Only candidates who clear the physical stage proceed to the 100-mark written test and 20-mark interview (120 marks total). Driver Constable candidates additionally take driving, technical, and highway code tests.

The schedule for the physical, written, and interview stages will be posted on the notice board outside the District Police Lines — no separate call letters are sent, and no excuse will be accepted for missing a scheduled test. Keep checking the notice board and the District Police Office regularly. Final selection is subject to a medical examination and document verification. No TA/DA is admissible at any stage.

Why Consider a Career in Punjab Police

Few openings combine this level of accessibility with long-term security: Matric-level qualification, district-based posting, a genuine quota for women, and a dedicated path for ex-servicemen. For tribal-area and Tehsil Rojhan candidates, the relaxed age, marks, and height standards open a door that most provincial recruitments keep shut. Policing also carries a social standing few other BPS-7 jobs offer — though the physical tests eliminate many candidates, those who clear them gain one of the most stable careers available at the Matric level in 2026.
