To encourage more women to take up police jobs, KCR has decided to implement 33.3 percent reservation in civil category and another 10 percent in Armed Police category.
In a significant move, he also took a decision to relax physical fitness tests for both female and male aspirants.The mandatory 5 km run for men and 2 km run for women are a thing of the past now with KCR directing officials not to conduct anymore hereafter.
Earlier, men contestants were tested in shotput, high jump, long jump, 100 metre run and 800 metre run. However, they will be having the choice of undertaking 800 metre run (mandatory) and any two from the aforesaid tests. Likewise, for women contestants, the physical fitness tests involves 100 metre run (mandatory) and another test (either shot put or long jump).
Like other recruitment tests that are being conducted in the new state, emphasis will also be laid on Telangana history in police recruitment jobs. Aspirants aiming to crack police jobs need to have a thorough knowledge about history and culture of Telangana since they would be posed related questions in the written test.
Coming to recruitments, 8360 posts will be filled in Police department, besides filling 186 posts in the Special Protection Force and 510 posts in Fire department. The breakup of jobs in police department: 1880 Civil Constable, 2800 Armed Constables, 3200 Special Police Constable, 107 Civil SIs, 91 Armed SIs, 288 Special Police SIs, and 35 Communication SIs.
