RPSC Sub Inspector SI Admit Card 2026

RPSC Sub Inspector & Platoon Commander 2026 — Admit Card and Exam Guide

Rajasthan Public Service Commission (RPSC) has released the Admit Card for Sub Inspector (SI) and Platoon Commander Recruitment (Advertisement No. 05/2025). RPSC SI is one of Rajasthan's most sought-after uniformed police officer posts — a gazetted Group B post in the Rajasthan Police. Sub Inspector is the frontline field officer level of the police force, above Head Constable but below Inspector.

Platoon Commander posts are in Rajasthan Home Guard / PAC (Platoon-Armed Constabulary) — also a gazetted uniformed post but with a different operational mandate (crowd control, reserve force deployment, VIP security). Both posts are selected through RPSC's written examination and physical stages.

Exam Day Checklist

• Blue/Black pen — RPSC SI is a written (OMR-based) exam
• No mobile phones or electronic devices

RPSC SI Exam Pattern

RPSC SI recruitment is a multi-stage process: Written Exam (Paper I + Paper II) → Physical Efficiency Test (PET) → Medical Examination → Document Verification.

Paper I — General Hindi and General Knowledge (200 marks, 3 hours): Hindi language proficiency + General Knowledge of India and Rajasthan — history, geography, polity, economy, current affairs. Rajasthan-specific questions (geography, culture, forts, folk traditions, state schemes) carry significant weight.

Paper II — General Knowledge and General Science (200 marks, 3 hours): Deeper General Studies — science, technology, environment, history, and more Rajasthan-specific content. Both papers are descriptive (written answers, not MCQ in traditional RPSC SI pattern — verify current pattern from your admit card).

Physical Test Standards After Written Exam

Written exam shortlisted candidates appear for PET: 5 km run for men (25 minutes cutoff), 800m run for women (4 minutes). Height: male 168 cm (Gen/OBC), 160 cm (SC/ST/MBC); female 152 cm. Chest (male): 81/86 cm expanded.
