UP Police ASI Details
Exam Pattern
The typing test is common to Sub Inspector (Confidential) and ASI (Clerical), so one admit card covers both. An ASI (Accounts) candidate gets a separate admit card for the typing test.
Selection Process
The notice we read covers only the computer typing stage of the 2023 cycle, so other stages are not described here. The service rules of 2015, amended in 2016, are on the Board's recruitment rules page.
