There is great news for lakhs of youth preparing for Uttar Pradesh Police recruitment. The UP government has decided to completely eliminate negative marking from the Police Constable, Head Constable and Jail Warder recruitment examination. This decision has received the approval of the state cabinet. Now marks will not be deducted for giving wrong answers in the written examination, so that candidates will be able to solve questions without any fear.
What was the rule earlier?
Earlier the rule of negative marking was applicable in the UP Police Recruitment Examination. According to the old pattern, the candidate got 2 marks for every correct answer, while 0.5 marks were deducted for every wrong answer. For this reason, the candidates had to solve the questions very thoughtfully. Many times, even after knowing the answer to the question, students would leave it due to the fear that if the answer was wrong, their marks would be deducted. Especially in subjects like General Knowledge and Current Affairs, this fear was seen even more.
What are the new rules?
Now a big change has been made in the rules of UP Police Recruitment Examination. According to the new system, no marks will be deducted for wrong answers of the candidates. This means that now you will get marks in the exam only by giving correct answers and giving wrong answers will not have any negative impact on the score. After this change, candidates will be able to answer all the questions without any fear. This amendment has been made under the Uttar Pradesh Police and Jail Service Rules 2025, which has been approved by the state government. Now the candidates are waiting for the official notification to be issued by the UP Police Recruitment and Promotion Board (UPPRPB), in which complete information related to the examination will be given clearly.
What will be the benefit to the candidates?
- Fear will end, confidence will increase- Now there will be no fear of giving wrong answer. With this, candidates will be able to solve questions with more confidence during the examination.
- Time management will be better- Earlier candidates used to spend a lot of time thinking whether to ask the question or leave it. Now they can solve the questions directly, which will save time.
- Opportunity to solve more questions- Now students will be able to attempt maximum questions. This will also increase the chances of good score.
- Relief in General Knowledge and Current Affairs- Many times the answer in these subjects is not completely certain. Now candidates will be able to answer on the basis of guess also, because there will be no loss if it is wrong.
