Part A – General Knowledge / Current Affairs: This section tests a candidate’s awareness of national and international current events. Questions will cover Sports, History, Culture, Geography, Indian Polity, Economy, Scientific Research, and Constitutional knowledge. Candidates should stay updated with daily current affairs and general awareness topics related to India and neighboring countries.
Part B – Reasoning Ability: The reasoning section evaluates analytical and logical thinking skills. Topics include Analogies, Similarities, Differences, Spatial Visualization, Series Completion, Coding-Decoding, Relationship Concepts, and Non-Verbal Reasoning. Regular practice of pattern-based problems is key to scoring high in this part. SSC Delhi Police Constable

Questions will come from Number Systems, Percentages, Ratio & Proportion, Profit & Loss, Simple & Compound Interest, Time & Distance, Mensuration, Average, Discount, and Time & Work.

Height and chest measurements (for males) and height standards (for females) will also be verified. Candidates must meet the prescribed physical fitness criteria to proceed further.
Medical Standards and Verification: All selected candidates will undergo a medical examination to ensure they are physically and mentally fit for police service. The medical standards require 6/12 vision without glasses, no color blindness, and no deformity or disease. Tattoos are allowed only if they meet the size and content rules prescribed by Delhi Police.

There will be no re-evaluation or re-checking of answer sheets. The final appointment will depend on document verification and character clearance by Delhi Police authorities.
Selection Process Details:
Overview of the Selection Process: The Delhi Police Constable (Executive) selection process is designed to evaluate a candidate’s overall physical fitness, mental ability, and eligibility for police duties. It consists of three major stages — a Computer-Based Examination (CBE), followed by a Physical Endurance and Measurement Test (PE&MT), and finally Document Verification (DV).
Stage 1 – Computer-Based Examination (CBE): The CBE is conducted online by the Staff Selection Commission (SSC) across multiple centers in India. It comprises 100 objective-type questions for 100 marks and lasts 90 minutes. The exam tests a candidate’s proficiency in General Knowledge, Reasoning, Numerical Ability, and Computer Knowledge.
Normalization of Marks: Since the exam is held in multiple shifts, SSC uses a normalization process to equalize scores. This ensures fairness for all candidates, regardless of the exam session they attend. The normalized score will be used for preparing the final merit list.
Stage 2 – Physical Endurance Test (PET): Candidates who qualify the CBE will be called for the Physical Endurance Test (PET). This includes Race, Long Jump, and High Jump events. The test assesses stamina, speed, and endurance. PET is qualifying in nature, meaning candidates must meet minimum standards but marks are not added to the final merit.
Stage 3 – Physical Measurement Test (PMT): After PET, candidates must pass the Physical Measurement Test (PMT). Measurements like height, weight, and chest (for males) are recorded according to prescribed standards. Relaxations in physical measurements are available for certain categories as per Government of India norms.
Medical Examination: All candidates who clear PE&MT must undergo a medical examination conducted by authorized medical officers of Delhi Police. The medical test ensures the candidate is free from physical deformities, color blindness, or diseases that may affect duty performance. Medical fitness is mandatory for final selection. SSC Delhi Police Constable
Document Verification (DV): In this stage, shortlisted candidates must present original certificates and documents such as proof of age, education, caste, and NCC or sports achievements. Candidates who fail to produce genuine documents will be disqualified from the recruitment process.
Final Merit List Preparation: The final merit list will be prepared on the basis of normalized scores obtained in the CBE. PE&MT and medical tests are only qualifying in nature. The final selection will depend on the rank secured, category reservation, and availability of vacancies under each category.
Character and Background Verification: Before appointment, selected candidates undergo a character and antecedent verification conducted by Delhi Police. Any adverse report, criminal case, or misconduct may lead to disqualification even after selection. Honesty and integrity are key eligibility conditions for police service.
Final Appointment and Training: Candidates who successfully pass all stages will be issued appointment letters by Delhi Police. They will then undergo basic police training at recognized training centers. The training focuses on discipline, law enforcement procedures, weapons handling, and communication skills before final posting in various units across Delhi. SSC Delhi Police Constable
