The West Bengal Police recruitment authority has declared the long-awaited final results for the constable exam of 2018, sending thousands of hopeful candidates rushing to verify their status. The announcement marks the conclusion of one of the largest state-level police recruitment drives in recent memory, with lakhs of aspirants having appeared for the examination across multiple phases.
The final results include the combined merit list prepared after the completion of all stages of the recruitment process — which typically encompasses the written examination, physical efficiency test, physical measurement test, and document verification. Candidates who cleared each stage sequentially have been ranked on the basis of their aggregate performance throughout the selection process.
According to officials, the recruitment exercise for constable posts was undertaken to fill vacancies that had accumulated over several years due to retirement and attrition in the state police force. The total number of positions announced during the notification exceeded several thousand, spread across various districts of West Bengal.
Candidates can access their results by visiting the official West Bengal Police recruitment website and entering their roll number or application details in the designated results portal. The direct link to the result page was made available on the official site shortly after the announcement.
Those whose names appear on the final merit list will proceed to the next phase of the process, which generally involves medical examinations and final documentation verification before appointment letters are issued. Officials have urged successful candidates to keep all original documents — including educational certificates, identity proofs, and caste certificates where applicable — ready for the verification stage.
The recruitment board has also indicated that the list of selected candidates will be published separately along with category-wise cut-off marks, allowing aspirants to understand the competitive threshold for different reservation categories.
