The Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment and Promotion Board (UPPBPB) has issued a new notification for Constable and Jail Warder recruitment, granting a 3-year age relaxation to candidates of all categories. This decision was made due to delays in recruitment caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. This will provide an additional 3-year age relaxation to candidates who have exceeded the previous age limit, allowing them to participate in this recruitment process.
