UP Police Recruitment and Promotion Board (UPPRPB) has announced the Physical Efficiency Test (PET) dates for the UP Police Constable and Equivalent Posts Direct Recruitment 2025, which covers 32,679 posts. The PET will run from 01.10.2026 to 07.10.2026 at fixed exam centres, and for Moradabad, Meerut and Ghaziabad districts it continues until 08.10.2026. Only candidates who cleared (or provisionally cleared) Document Verification and the Physical Standard Test (DV/PST) will be called, and their PET admit cards will go up on uppbpb.gov.in about a week before the test.
A reserve day is a spare day kept aside by the Board, for example if a PET session cannot be held as planned. The notice lists it separately from the main PET window, so keep that date free too.
What This Means for You
If your name was on the DV/PST list and you cleared that stage, your next step is the PET, and here is what to do now:
Keep checking uppbpb.gov.in — the PET admit card link will appear there about a week before your test date.
Log in through the link on the Board website and download your PET admit card as soon as it is out.
Check the exam centre, date and reporting time printed on your admit card; your PET will be held only there.
Reach the centre on time on the date shown, with your admit card and the documents listed below.
If your DV was completed on a provisional basis, you can still take the PET, but your PET result will also stay provisional until the Board takes a final decision on your case.
