The Central Recruitment Board (CRB) is conducting recruitment for the police force as per the rules.
“We had seen in the past that these recruitments would take quite a long time because of the various rules so we have tried to streamline the rules so that we can ensure that the recruitment process is completed efficiently, transparently and in the fastest possible time. These rules are quite a few but just to summarize these rules are to ensure that the recruitment process for SI constables (AB/UB) would be conducted efficiently and take the least possible time,” he said.
