Bengaluru, Oct 1:
In a significant policy shift that could open doors for thousands of police job aspirants, Karnataka’s Home Department is considering permanently relaxing the upper age limit for recruitment to police constable, sub-inspector (PSI), and police inspector (PI) posts.
The change, expected to be formalized within a week, will introduce three distinct age slabs, home minister Dr G Parameshwara confirmed.
Three-Tier Age Bracket Likely
Speaking to reporters in Bengaluru, Dr Parameshwara revealed that the department is in the final stages of revising the cadre and recruitment rules for the police force. Drawing comparisons with practices in other Indian states, the minister said Karnataka will adopt a structured approach to age limits.
