Delhi Police Postpones PE&MT 2025 Amid Adverse Weather Conditions; Fresh Dates Awaited

New Delhi: The Delhi Police has officially announced the postponement of the Physical Endurance and Measurement Test (PE&MT) for several recruitment categories under the Delhi Police Examination 2025. The decision comes as a precautionary measure following severe and adverse weather conditions that have made it difficult to conduct the physical assessments as planned.

Affected Recruitment Categories

According to the official notification, the postponement impacts a wide range of candidates who were preparing for the next phase of their recruitment journey. The affected posts include:

• Constable (Executive): All physical tests scheduled to take place from August 22, 2026, onwards have been deferred.
• Head Constable (Ministerial): The PE&MT for all shortlisted candidates has been put on hold.
• Head Constable (AWO/TPO): The PE&MT for all candidates has been postponed.
• Constable (Driver): The PE&MT for all candidates has been postponed.

The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has mirrored this update on its official portal, confirming that the change in schedule applies to all aforementioned categories, regardless of gender or specific candidate categorization.

What Candidates Should Do Next

As of now, the Delhi Police has not released a revised timetable for these tests. Candidates who were slated to appear for their assessments in the coming days are advised not to report to the test centers on their previously assigned dates.

The recruitment board has stated that fresh dates for the Delhi Police Constable PE&MT 2025 will be announced in due course. Aspirants are strongly encouraged to monitor the official Delhi Police website regularly for the latest updates and administrative notifications.

A Critical Recruitment Phase

The PE&MT serves as a vital milestone in the recruitment process for Delhi Police personnel. For candidates who have successfully cleared the Computer Based Examination, the physical test is a mandatory prerequisite before moving on to subsequent stages, such as document verification and specific skill tests.

While the delay may be inconvenient, it is standard practice for authorities to prioritize the safety and health of candidates when weather conditions become hazardous for outdoor physical activities. For further clarity, candidates can access the official postponement notice here.
