UP Police Constable DV Checklist: Original Documents & Self-Attestation Rules
Carrying an incomplete document set is one of the most common reasons candidates face rejection at this stage. Here’s the complete checklist candidates should prepare, both in original and as self-attested photocopies:
Mandatory Documents
- Admit card/call letter for DV/PST, printed clearly
- High School (Class 10) marksheet and certificate — for date of birth proof
- Intermediate (Class 12) marksheet and certificate
- Graduation marksheet and degree certificate (if applicable to the post)
- Original online application form printout submitted during registration
- Domicile/residence certificate (Uttar Pradesh)
- Category certificate (SC/ST/OBC/EWS), issued by a competent authority, if claiming reservation
- Valid government-issued photo ID proof (Aadhaar Card, Voter ID, PAN Card, etc.)
- Character certificate, as specified in the official notification
- Recent passport-size photographs (multiple copies, matching the one uploaded during application)
- Ex-servicemen/dependent certificate, sports certificate, or NCC certificate, wherever applicable for relevant category benefits
- Caste and income certificate for EWS candidates, valid as per government norms
- Gap certificate or affidavit, if there’s a break in your education after the qualifying exam
Self-Attestation Rules to Follow
- Every photocopy submitted must be self-attested, meaning the candidate signs across the photocopy in their own handwriting, confirming it as a true copy of the original.
- Self-attestation should be done in blue or black ink, avoiding smudges or overlapping signatures across text.
- Do not laminate original certificates, as verifying officials often need to physically examine seals, stamps, and paper texture.
- Arrange documents in the exact order specified in the admit card or official checklist, rather than randomly, to speed up the verification process.
- Carry at least two sets of photocopies wherever possible, in case additional copies are requested on the spot.
Candidates whose documents don’t match the details submitted during online application — such as name spelling, date of birth, or category — may face rejection, so it’s advisable to cross-check every entry well in advance.
DV सेंटर गाइडलाइन्स और PET (दौड़) की अंतिम तैयारी टिप्स
DV Centre पर ध्यान रखने योग्य बातें
- Admit card में दिए गए centre, तारीख और समय पर कम से कम 1 घंटा पहले पहुँचें, ताकि लंबी लाइन और भीड़ से बचा जा सके।
- सभी original documents और self-attested photocopies को एक clear folder या file में सही क्रम में रखें, ताकि verification अधिकारी को दस्तावेज़ ढूंढने में समय बर्बाद न हो।
- Mobile phone, calculator, या कोई भी electronic gadget centre के अंदर ले जाने की अनुमति सामान्यतः नहीं होती — इन्हें साथ न लाना ही बेहतर है, या entry gate पर जमा करवाने की व्यवस्था के बारे में पहले से जानकारी ले लें।
- Height, chest (जहाँ लागू हो) जैसी physical measurements भी इसी चरण में ली जाती हैं, इसलिए comfortable, हल्के कपड़े और जूते पहनकर जाएँ।
- Verification के दौरान किसी भी officer से विनम्रता से बात करें, सभी सवालों का सही जवाब दें, और अगर किसी दस्तावेज़ में कोई शंका हो तो तुरंत स्पष्टीकरण मांगें।
- अपने साथ पानी, हल्का नाश्ता और ज़रूरी दवाइयाँ (अगर कोई हों) रखें, क्योंकि DV/PST प्रक्रिया में पूरा दिन भी लग सकता है।
PET (दौड़) की अंतिम तैयारी टिप्स
चूंकि DV/PST के बाद PET (Physical Efficiency Test) सितंबर 2026 में प्रस्तावित है, अभी से तैयारी शुरू करना फायदेमंद रहेगा:
- रोज़ाना running practice करें: धीरे-धीरे अपनी speed और stamina बढ़ाने के लिए सुबह-शाम दौड़ की practice को रूटीन बनाएं, और हर हफ्ते अपनी timing को नोट करते रहें ताकि सुधार साफ़ नज़र आए।
- Interval training अपनाएं: तेज़ दौड़ और हल्की जॉगिंग को बारी-बारी से करने से endurance बेहतर होता है, जो लंबी दूरी की दौड़ में मदद करता है।
- सही diet और hydration पर ध्यान दें: प्रोटीन युक्त भोजन, पर्याप्त पानी, और पूरी नींद शरीर को तेजी से रिकवर करने में मदद करती है, जिससे लगातार training संभव हो पाती है।
- Mock timing tests लें: असली परीक्षा जैसी परिस्थितियों में समय के साथ दौड़ का अभ्यास करें, ताकि exam-day pressure को बेहतर तरीके से संभाला जा सके।
- चोट से बचाव को प्राथमिकता दें: दौड़ से पहले proper warm-up और बाद में stretching ज़रूर करें, ताकि training के दौरान चोट लगने का खतरा कम हो।
- पर्याप्त आराम भी ज़रूरी है: लगातार बिना रुके training करने से थकान और चोट का खतरा बढ़ता है, इसलिए हफ्ते में एक हल्का rest day ज़रूर रखें।
What Happens After DV/PST?
Candidates who successfully clear both Document Verification and the Physical Standard Test will become eligible to appear in the Physical Efficiency Test (PET), tentatively scheduled for September 2026. UPPRPB has clarified that normalized marks and the final merit list will be published only after the complete selection process, including PET, concludes. Candidates should continue checking the official website regularly for updates on the exact PET schedule and venue.
