Rajasthan Police Constable physical test (PET / PST)

Rajasthan Police Constable (General / Driver / Band) 2025. Every figure below is as printed in the official notice linked at the end, read on 27 Oct 2026; where the notice gives no figure, this page says so.

How it counts: Pass or fail: the PET and PST are qualifying (योग्यात्मक). One attempt at the 5 km race, no appeal. A certificate of fitness to run from a government doctor must be shown before the PET.

  • Chest must expand by at least 5 cm.
  • SC / ST candidates get 5 cm relaxation in height and chest only if enough SC / ST candidates meeting the general-area standards are not available.
  • Hill and tribal-area candidates are measured under Rule 14(2) of the Rajasthan Police Subordinate Service Rules, 1989; the notice does not print those figures.
  • No relaxation in women's 152 cm and 47.5 kg, except for Sahariya women.
  • The notice prints the race times in four columns (men, women, ex-servicemen, TSP SC/ST); it does not say how the TSP column applies to women.

Not in the notice (left out, not guessed): The hill / tribal-area figures under Rule 14(2); A weight standard for men.

Not medical advice

  • This is general fitness guidance, not medical advice, and it is not a plan made for you.
  • See a doctor before you start if you have a heart or lung condition, asthma, high blood pressure, diabetes, a recent injury or surgery, or if you are pregnant.
  • Stop and see a doctor if you get chest pain or tightness, feel faint or dizzy, are far more breathless than the effort explains, or have pain that stays the next day.
  • Some exams (Rajasthan Police, for one) ask for a government doctor's certificate that you are fit to run, before the test.

  • Three sessions a week with a rest day between them; walk on the other days if you like.
  • Warm up with the 5-minute walk and cool down the same way. Drink water.
  • Run on flat ground first; wear running shoes that fit.
  • If a week feels too hard, repeat it. Moving on slowly is better than getting hurt.
  • Avoid running in the hottest part of the day.

WHO: adults (18-64) should do at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity a week. WHO fact sheet 'Physical activity', 26 June 2024.
