20% constable posts reserved for ex-Agniveers in Delhi Police; no physical test required

Business To Business, New Delhi, 31 March 2026: Delhi Police will reserve 20 per cent of constable (executive) posts for former Agniveers, along with exemptions from the physical efficiency test and relaxation in the upper age limit, according to a notification issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs.
The move follows amendments to the Delhi Police (Appointment and Recruitment) Rules, 1980, notified on Friday, formalising recruitment policies in alignment with the Centre’s broader plan to absorb Agniveers into security forces after their four-year tenure under the Agnipath Scheme.
Detailed procedures for conducting recruitment processes—including written examinations and physical measurement tests—will be issued separately by the Commissioner of Police.
