Rajasthan Police Constable Eligibility 2026: Age, Education and Physical Standards
Rajasthan Police Constable eligibility depends on the post you apply for. Qualification, age limit and physical standards differ between General Duty, Driver, Band, Mounted and Telecommunication posts, and between men, women and candidates from notified tribal areas.
The figures below are reported from the 2025 notification, the latest cycle we could verify, and some sources disagree on details. Treat them as indicative, and confirm every limit and the age reference date in the current advertisement on the official Rajasthan Police website before you apply.
