Hi Anubhav!! Hope you are doing well!! It's good to see you want to become a police officer. To become a police officer, you need to complete your graduation after 12th. The CSE exam conducted by UPSC is the required examination to crack for becoming an IPS officer and you can apply for this exam only if you have a graduate degree. It consists of prelims,mains and interview round. After cracking all this, you can be selected for the training and achieve your dream to become a police officer .

Hi,

Policing is a glamorous and respectable profession a12th passed students can’t appear for this exam right after 12th. After completing 12th, they must complete Graduation first. After completing Graduation program successfully, they may take a shot and CSE and become an IPS Officer subsequently.

Hello

If you want to become a Police Officer, you will have to clear IPS (Indian Police Services) exam which is held by Union public service commission (UPSC) every year.

The eligibility to appear in the exam in Graduation in any stream. (if you are in last year of your degree, then also you may appear for the exam.)

Your age should be 21-32 years for a general category aspirant. (Relaxation for reserved category candidate is applicable here.

There are 3 steps in the whole process:

1. Preliminary Exam

2. Main Examination

3. Personal Interview

Since, you have only completed your 12th level of study, so right now you cannot apply for IPS exam. But later on once you complete your Bachelor level of study then surely you can apply for this exam.

Hope it helps.
