Punjab Police Jobs 2026 – 1,170 Constable, Lady Constable & Driver Constable Posts in Rahim Yar Khan and Rajanpur

If you are from Rahim Yar Khan or Rajanpur and waiting for a genuine government job, Punjab Police Jobs 2026 may be your chance — Punjab Police has officially announced recruitment for 1,170 Constable, Lady Constable and Driver Constable posts (BPS-07) in these two districts. Announced under reference IPL-10492 on 3 October 2026, it is among South Punjab’s largest police recruitment drives this year — and applications open on 12 October 2026.

Here is why this matters: most government jobs demand graduation, but this one asks for only a Matric certificate. That opens the door for thousands of young men and women who finished school but could not study further. Both can apply, with quotas for women, minorities and retired armed forces personnel. If you hold a Rahim Yar Khan or Rajanpur domicile, this is meant for you.

In this guide, NexHireX breaks down the complete Punjab Police Jobs 2026 announcement — exact posts per district, eligibility, age limits, physical standards, the Rs. 300 fee, and how to submit your form before 31 October 2026. One request: read the official advertisement yourself too, because the final word belongs to Punjab Police, not any website.

Vacancies

Punjab Police Jobs 2026 has divided the 1,170 posts district- and area-wise — find yours:

Quick clarification: “Constable” posts include Lady Constable seats — women apply against the same district quota. The two Driver posts are separate and need a driving licence (covered below). Note this is a district-level Punjab Police recruitment, different from PPSC’s provincial hiring — PPSC separately announced 1,992 posts in Advertisement No. 10/2026 (see our complete PPSC Jobs 2026 guide).

Application Process & Required Documents

There is no online application — everything happens on paper, in person. Follow these steps:

1. Download the form: download the prescribed form from punjabpolice.gov.pk and print it.
2. Fill it carefully: enter details exactly as on your CNIC and Matric certificate — spelling mistakes cause rejection.
3. Attach attested documents: photocopies of everything listed below, duly attested.
4. Pay the fee: Rs. 300, deposited exactly as directed in the official notice. Keep the receipt safe — you will need it.
5. Submit in person: submit the form at your District Police Lines between 12 and 31 October 2026, and get a receiving stamp or slip.
6. Prepare for the tests: test schedules will be announced through the DPO office and Police Lines — stay in touch after submitting.

Documents you will need:

• Domicile certificate of the respective district/area
• Matric (SSC) certificate / result card
• Recent passport-size photographs
• Valid LTV driving licence (Driver Constable only)
• NOC from department (for government employees only)

Warning: never pay any agent or middleman promising a “guaranteed” seat. The only official cost is the Rs. 300 fee — anyone asking for more is running a scam.

Deadline

Mark this date: 31 October 2026 — the last day your Punjab Police Jobs 2026 form can reach the District Police Lines. The window (12–31 October) sounds comfortable until you see the final-days rush at the counter.

Do not wait for the last week — submit early, keep your receiving slip, and use the extra time to train for the 1.6 km run. Late or incomplete applications will not be entertained.

Editor’s Insights & Career Analysis

A 1,170-seat recruitment in Rahim Yar Khan and Rajanpur is a genuinely big opportunity — South Punjab districts usually see exactly this kind of district-quota hiring once in a few years, and once it closes, there is no second chance. The biggest thing most candidates miss: this is district-based merit. Your domicile of Rahim Yar Khan or Rajanpur is the ticket. Plenty of deserving people get rejected at the very first stage simply because their domicile doesn’t match the district they’re applying for — check that before anything else.

BPS-07 might sound modest on paper, but a Punjab Police constable career is one of the most secure paths available in these districts. You start as a constable, and with service, departmental exams, and clean records, the ladder opens up to Head Constable and then ASI — real, visible upward mobility with government benefits, pension, and respect in the community. For someone in South Punjab with intermediate-level education, this is often the best shot at a permanent government job you’ll see in 2026.

The physical test is where roughly half the crowd gets eliminated, and almost always for a preventable reason: showing up unprepared. The running standard (1.6 km within the set time), height and chest measurements — these aren’t things you can wing on the day. Start training at least a month ahead: daily running, not occasional jogging around the mohalla. Train on an actual track or measured ground so your timing is real. And when it comes to the written test, focus on general knowledge, basic English/Urdu, Islamic studies, and Pakistan studies — the standard constable syllabus — rather than trying to memorise entire textbooks.

• Get your CNIC, domicile, educational certificates, and photographs ready and verified well before the test dates are announced.
• Don’t trust agents promising “seats” — Punjab Police recruitment is merit-based through the physical, written, interview, and medical stages.
• Keep an eye on the official Punjab Police channels for the schedule; test dates for different districts often fall on different days.
