The Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment and Promotion Board (UPPRPB) is set to release the UP Home Guard DV/PST Admit Card 2026 on its official website for candidates shortlisted for the Document Verification (DV) and Physical Standard Test (PST) stages of the recruitment process. Candidates who qualified in the written examination will be able to download their admit cards by logging in with their Registration Number, Enrollment Number, or Date of Birth.
As per the official schedule, the UP Home Guard DV/PST 2026 will be conducted from 13 July 2026 to 07 August 2026 at designated examination centers across Uttar Pradesh. The online application process for the recruitment concluded on 17 December 2025. Once released, the direct link to download the admit card will be activated on the official recruitment portal.
Candidates are advised to keep checking the official website for the latest updates regarding the admit card, reporting time, and physical test instructions. Based on expert analysis, applicants who attempted approximately 70–75 questions correctly in the written examination have a strong chance of progressing further in the recruitment process and should begin preparing for the Physical Efficiency Test (PET) and Physical Standard Test (PST). Although the minimum qualifying mark in the written examination is 25% (25 marks), candidates generally need a significantly higher score to improve their chances of securing a position in the final merit list.
