hello sir,

dear friend,
As per +2 degree you can't be a police officer.
But you can join police at a low post & after successive promotions you can be a police officer.
& if you want to join police directly on the post of officer rank, then graduation is the minimum criteria.
Even if you want to apply for the post of "daroga", then you have to be a graduate.

after graduation you can apply for IAS also.which is an officer grade jobs.

kindly decide what you want to do.
then take preparation for it.

good luck.
