3. PST and certificate verification: the PST was held on 12 September 2026 at the ground of Bihar Veterinary College, Patna. It measured height and chest for men and height and weight for women.
4. PST outcome: 250 candidates appeared, 13 failed and 237 passed. Of these 237, 86 were women and 151 were men. All 237 met the criteria for education, age and reservation category.
5. Final merit list: the final list was prepared from marks in the written exam, after PST and certificate checks.

The notice says the process followed the Bihar Police Special Branch Constable (General Duty Close Cadre) Rules, 2024. It also followed Bihar General Administration Department Resolution No. 12575 of 9 July 2025 on horizontal reservation for women.

Category-wise vacancies and cut-off marks

The notice gives the vacancies by reservation category. It also gives the cut-off marks for the last selected candidate in each group. Where cut-offs tied, date of birth decided the order. A dash means no cut-off was shown for that group.

The notice also records that the 35% horizontal reservation for women who are Bihar domiciles was fully used. No vacancy remained for women, so no vacancies needed to be carried forward to a later recruitment year.
