Hundreds of aspirants for the 2025 police recruitment exam flocked to Bardhaman on November 30, 2025, to appear for the written test conducted by the WBPRB. Queues formed outside exam centres early in the morning as candidates waited to enter under tight security arrangements. The exam is part of a large-scale recruitment effort by the WBPRB to fill several thousand constable positions across the state. Admit cards for this cycle were issued earlier.
High Security and Strict Protocols at Exam Centres
At Bardhaman’s exam centres, security was notably tight. In many centres, local police officials personally oversaw entry procedures to ensure there was no misuse of admit cards or entry with unauthorised items. Candidates were instructed to carry only essential items — admit card and valid photo-ID — and to arrive well before the gate-closing times printed on the hall ticket. Entry protocols varied slightly between centres, but all complied with WBPRB guidelines.
Exam Details: Date, Format and Vacancies
The written exam for the 2025 recruitment drive is being held across West Bengal on 30 November 2025. It covers various Constable and Lady Constable posts under the recruitment notification. Candidates will face an objective-type paper, with a fixed number of questions to be answered within the stipulated duration. Previous notices have also mentioned the availability of admit cards from early November this year.
What Candidates Should Check and Keep Ready?
- Confirm exam centre name, reporting time and shift on the admit card.
- Carry printed admit card and a valid photo ID — soft copies will not be accepted.
- Reach the exam centre well before gate-closing time to avoid delays.
- Avoid carrying prohibited items (mobile phones, electronics, bags) — such items are often barred from entry.
These measures apply across all West Bengal exam centres to maintain transparency and fairness.
What Next: Post-Exam Process and Admit Card Validity?
After the written test, answer-key release and result declaration will follow as per WBPRB’s standard schedule. Shortlisted candidates will progress to further selection rounds (physical tests or interviews, where applicable). Candidates are advised to keep their admit cards safe till final selection. As the recruitment covers large-scale vacancies, the process and timelines for next stages will be shared on the official WBPRB website
