Punjab Police jobs: In Rahim Yar Khan and Rajanpur, the police uniform still carries a weight that office jobs never will. Families notice. Mohallas notice. So when 1,170 constable posts open at once in just these southern districts, the rush at the Police Lines tells its own story.
This recruitment is live right now and the window closes on October 31. Forms are physical, the fee is small, and the mistakes people make are painfully basic. This guide covers the posts, the eligibility, the quotas and the tests, so you walk in prepared instead of hopeful.
Punjab Police Jobs at a Glance
The Central Police Office in Lahore advertised these posts on October 12:
- Rahim Yar Khan: 718 Constable and Lady Constable posts.
- Rajanpur: 300 posts, covering settled areas and the de-excluded tribal belt.
- Tehsil Rojhan in Rajanpur: 150 posts of its own.
- Driver Constable: one post in each of the two districts.
All posts are BPS-07 and regular. If you are also eyeing commission posts, our PPSC jobs guide covers the province’s other open door this month.
Eligibility and Quotas
The education bar is Matric. In settled areas you need at least 50 percent marks; in the de-excluded areas a board pass is accepted, which is a fair recognition of how hard schooling is out there. Physical standards and age bands differ between the settled and tribal areas, and guides online contradict each other on the exact inches and years. So treat the printed advertisement for your own district as the final word and check your measurements against it before you travel.
The Quota Breakdown
What is fixed everywhere: quotas of 15 percent for women, 5 percent for minorities, 10 percent for children of police employees and 10 percent for ex-army men. And one line in the ad deserves respect. There is no relaxation in height, chest, education or age. None. Knowing that early saves a wasted journey, and it saves the heartbreak of reaching the front of the line only to be measured out.
How to Apply for Punjab Police Jobs
The form is downloaded from the official Punjab Police website, filled, and submitted by hand at the District Police Lines of your own district, with attested copies of your documents and a form fee of Rs 300. The receiving window runs from October 12 to October 31. Government employees must bring an NOC from their department.
After submission comes the real filter. Physical measurement first, then the running test: 1.6 kilometres in 7 minutes for men and 10 minutes for women. Then a written test and an interview. Driver Constable candidates face a driving test as well. Start running now, not the week your roll number arrives. Most hopefuls fail the race with their legs, not the paper with their minds.
A Word of Caution
No agent can get you selected, and no payment beyond the Rs 300 form fee exists anywhere in this process. If someone in the bazaar promises a confirmed seat for cash, he is selling you a story. The merit list does not take bribes, and every year young men lose savings learning that the hard way.
