The Gujarat Police Department has officially extended the application deadline for its ongoing 2021 recruitment drive, which covers over 1,382 vacancies across multiple ranks and specialisations. The expanded timeline gives prospective candidates additional time to submit their forms through the state government's official recruitment portal, ojas.gujarat.gov.in.
The recruitment cycle encompasses posts at both the sub-inspector and assistant sub-inspector levels, alongside specialised roles such as Intelligence Officers. These positions are critical to strengthening the state's law enforcement framework and have drawn significant interest from thousands of eligible candidates across Gujarat.
While the exact revised last date has been communicated through official circulars, the extension reflects the department's responsiveness to feedback from aspirants who cited various practical difficulties in meeting the original deadline. Officials noted that the additional time should help ensure that genuinely interested and eligible candidates are not missed due to logistical constraints.
Candidates who wish to apply must complete the entire registration process, including uploading required documents and paying the applicable fee, before the new deadline. The recruitment notification originally outlined eligibility criteria based on educational qualifications, age limits, and physical standards appropriate to each post. A detailed examination schedule, including written tests and physical efficiency assessments, is expected to be released once the application window closes.
The Gujarat Police recruitment drive represents one of the largest state-level hiring exercises in recent years, offering long-term career opportunities in policing and intelligence services. Authorities have urged candidates to verify all details carefully on the official portal and avoid relying on third-party information sources before submitting applications.
