As per the guidelines of the Andhra Pradesh State Level Recruitment Board (APSLRB), the Guntur district police will conduct Physical Measurement Test (PMT) and Physical Efficiency Test (PET) for the police constable aspirants from December 30, 2024, to January 22, 2025, at the Police Parade Grounds.
“In all, 9,084 candidates — 7,483 men and 1,601 women — have qualified for the tests from the district after clearing the preliminary examination,” Guntur Superintendent of Police S. Satish Kumar said in a statement on December 28, 2024 (Saturday).
Arrangements had been made to ensure a smooth, transparent and impartial recruitment process, he said.
“Candidates are required to report at their allotted time slots between 5 a.m. and 10 a.m. They must carry original documents of SSC and Intermediate mark sheets, community certificate, and other relevant credentials as specified in the call letter. Failure to produce the documents will result in disqualification,” Mr. Satish Kumar said.
To ensure efficiency and transparency in the process, advanced technology, including CCTV cameras, was being used. Medical facilities, including ambulance service, were also arranged. Step-by-step instructions would be issued to the candidates through display boards at the test venue, he added.
Height and chest measurements, a 1,600-metre run, a 100-metre sprint, and long jump would be conducted as part of the tests. Verification of biometric data, NCC certificates, and local status claims would also be conducted, Mr. Satish Kumar said.
Assuring that no inconvenience would be caused to the candidates, he advised them to be wary of the fraudulent agents’ claims of securing a job in exchange for money. “Dial 112 to report such activities, or reach out to the local police. Details of the informants will be kept confidential,” he said.
“The Guntur police aim to execute a fair and robust recruitment process, while upholding the integrity of the system,” the official said.
