The Gujarat Police Department has issued comprehensive guidelines for its Constable recruitment process for 2025, providing aspirants with a clear roadmap of eligibility requirements, age limits, educational qualifications, and physical standards that candidates must meet before applying.
According to the official notification, the recruitment drive is aimed at filling vacancies across various police stations and units throughout Gujarat. The department has emphasised that candidates must fulfil all criteria before appearing for the selection stages, which typically include a written examination, physical efficiency test, and medical examination.
The age limit for general category candidates has been set between 18 and 28 years, while reserved category applicants benefit from relaxation provisions as per state government rules. Candidates belonging to Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes, and ex-servicemen are eligible for age relaxations ranging from five to ten years depending on their category.
On the educational front, candidates are required to have passed the 12th standard examination or an equivalent qualification from a recognised board. The Gujarat Police has reiterated that candidates must possess valid mark sheets and certificates at the time of document verification.
Physical standards remain one of the most critical screening parameters. Male candidates must meet minimum height requirements that vary by community, along with chest measurement norms for those eligible for chest expansion. Female candidates face different physical standards tailored to gender-specific measurements. Candidates are advised to consult the official notification for exact measurements applicable to their category.
The recruitment cycle is expected to begin shortly, with the official advertisement likely to be published across major regional newspapers and the Gujarat Police website. Aspirants are encouraged to verify all details from authentic sources before preparing their applications.
