Delhi Police Head Constable Ministerial 2026: PE&MT Card

Latest Update

The Delhi Police Head Constable (Ministerial) 2026 recruitment has entered its physical test stage. Delhi Police released the admit card for the Physical Endurance and Measurement Test (PE&MT) on 21 July 2026, and the test itself is underway from 25 July 2026 onward at designated centres. This follows the CBT written result declared on 19 June 2026, in which a large batch of candidates across Constable and Head Constable posts were shortlisted for the physical stage.

If you've already qualified the written exam, this is the stage where your candidature actually gets decided on the field — the physical round is qualifying in nature, but missing your reporting date isn't something you can appeal your way out of.

Recruitment Overview

Vacancy Breakdown

Figures reflect the originally notified count; SSC and Delhi Police have released revised vacancy figures in later notices, so candidates should confirm the latest count on the official SSC portal before the final round.

Eligibility Criteria

Educational Qualification

Candidates need 10+2 (Class 12) from a recognized board, along with a typing speed requirement — typically English typing at 30 WPM or Hindi typing at 25 WPM, as specified in the official notification. A National Trade Certificate in the relevant trade is also accepted in some notifications, so it's worth checking the exact wording on your category before assuming you don't qualify.

Age Limit

18 to 25 years as on 1 July 2025 (as fixed by the original notification), with standard SC/ST/OBC/Ex-Servicemen relaxation as per government norms.

Physical Standards

Height, chest (for male candidates), and endurance run requirements apply and vary by category and gender — these are listed in detail on the Delhi Police recruitment portal.

Selection Process

The Delhi Police Head Constable Ministerial 2026 recruitment runs across four stages:

1. Computer-Based Test (CBT) — objective paper covering General Awareness, Quantitative Aptitude, Reasoning, and English.
2. Physical Endurance & Measurement Test (PE&MT) — qualifying stage; does not count toward final merit.
3. Document Verification (DV) — usually conducted alongside PE&MT.
4. Typing/Skill Test — checks the ministerial typing requirement in English or Hindi.

Final merit is based purely on CBT marks; the physical and skill rounds only confirm you're eligible to be appointed, so a strong written score is still what actually gets you the post.

How to Download the PE&MT Admit Card

1. Visit the official Delhi Police recruitment page or your SSC regional website.
2. Look for "Admit Card for PE&MT — Head Constable (Ministerial)."
3. Log in using your Registration Number and Date of Birth.
4. Download and print the admit card in colour if possible.
5. Carry the printed admit card, a valid photo ID, and the original documents listed in your notice to the test venue on your allotted date — reporting date changes are not entertained.

If you want to brush up on the CBT-level topics before the skill test and final result stage, our SSC Delhi Police Head Constable mock test series covers section-wise practice for General Awareness, Reasoning, and Quantitative Aptitude.

What Happens After PE&MT

Once the physical and document verification rounds wrap up, Delhi Police typically opens the typing/skill test window within a few weeks, followed by the final merit list. Candidates should keep their SSC login credentials handy through this entire window — several stages this cycle have used the same portal login for admit cards, and losing access mid-process has been a recurring complaint on forums this year.
