MP Police Recruitment Capsule: Constable Band Final Result 2026 – 28 September 2026

Capsule

MP Police PHQ’s Constable (Band) final result (560 selected from 39,468 applicants) is a useful state-police recruitment case study: written exam → interview → category-wise final list, with EWS shortfalls reducing the filled count versus the provisional 591-post main-component target.

Note the legal caveat — results subject to pending High Court writs — a reminder that select lists can be modified by judicial orders.

Static

• Madhya Pradesh capital: Bhopal
• State police recruitment often via MPPEB / PEB or PHQ-notified boards depending on cadre
• Horizontal reservations (ESM, Home Guard, PwD) interact with vertical SC/ST/OBC/EWS rosters

Band Constable posts illustrate specialised police cadres where skill tests (band / music) sit alongside written and interview stages. When writing, note that PHQ can revise lists for technical errors and that High Court stays can alter joining timelines even after a final PDF is published.

Keep a one-page revision note with the date, theme or judgment angle, one statutory or institutional name, and one numerical fact. That format matches how SSC CGL and banking prelims mix static GK with current affairs in the same question paper.
