Gujarat Police PSI & Lokrakshak (Constable) Recruitment

GPRB was set up by the Home Department resolution of 7 March 2024. Under Advertisement GPRB/202526/1, candidates applied online on ojas.gujarat.gov.in from 3 December 2025 (2 pm) to 23 December 2025 (11:59 pm), choosing PSI Cadre, Lokrakshak Cadre or Both. [1]

Posts in GPRB/202526/1 [1]

10% of the posts (1,359) are reserved for ex-servicemen as per rules. [1]

Qualification and age (general category) [1]

Upper age relaxation (both cadres) [1]

Minimum physical standards [1]

• Knock knee, pigeon chest, squint eye, flat feet, varicose veins, hammer toes, fractured limb, decayed teeth, communicable skin disease or colour blindness make a candidate unfit (colour blindness is not a bar for Jail Sepoy).
• Basic computer knowledge and adequate Gujarati or Hindi are required for both cadres. [1]

Stage 1 — Physical test (qualifying, common to both cadres) [1]

Those who pass the run go through the height and chest measurement. A candidate who applied for both cadres takes the physical test only once. [1]

Stage 2 — PSI Main exam (300 marks) [1]

Stage 2 — Lokrakshak objective test (200 MCQs, 200 marks, 3 hours) [1]

• Every MCQ is 1 mark. A wrong answer, or leaving all options blank, costs 0.25 mark; option E, “Not attempted”, carries no penalty.
• Candidates must score at least 40% in Part A and in Part B separately (and 40% in the PSI descriptive paper).
• The PSI descriptive paper is checked for about 20 times the vacancies, from candidates who cleared both MCQ parts.
• Final PSI selection adds the bonus marks allowed for NCC “C”, Rashtriya Raksha University or National Forensic Sciences University certificates, sports and widowhood. [1]

• Fee is paid online only (RuPay and UPI have no bank charge; cards and net banking do). Cash or post-office challans are not accepted.
• The fee is not refunded in any case. [1]

Category-wise posts across both cadres (GPRB/202526/1) [1]

• SEBC: non-creamy-layer certificate in the Gujarati Appendix-4 format, issued between 1 April 2023 and 23 December 2025 on the income of 2022-23, 2023-24 or 2024-25. Alternatively, the central government's Annexure-A certificate issued between 1 April 2025 and 23 December 2025.
• Married SEBC women must give the certificate on their parents' income; one based on the husband's income makes the application void.
• EWS: state certificate in Annexure-KH (Parishisht-G) issued between 23 December 2022 and 23 December 2025, or the central Income and Asset Certificate for 2024-25 issued between 1 April 2025 and 23 December 2025. Certificates for Gujarat government schemes are not accepted.
• Without a valid certificate, the candidate is treated as unreserved — and is out if over the unreserved age limit.
• There is no fixed cut-off: merit lists follow the 40% qualifying rule and the vacancies. [1]

• Proof of age and educational qualification.
• Caste certificate and the SEBC or EWS certificate described above.
• NCC “C” certificate, Rashtriya Raksha University or National Forensic Sciences University certificate, sports certificate, widow certificate — only if you claim bonus marks.
