Is MPS the same as general Meghalaya Police recruitment?
No. Meghalaya Police Service is a particular officer-service recruitment. Constable, sub-inspector, ministerial and DSC posts may have different recruiting bodies, eligibility and stages.

Separate MPS officer recruitment from other police and DSC posts: check the current advertisement, physical standards, stage-wise syllabus, and published papers.
Exam overview
What this examination path includes.
The Meghalaya Police Service (MPS) is a specific officer-service recruitment, distinct from Meghalaya Police constable or other police posts and from District Selection Committee examinations.
The 2019 MPS advertisement and subsequent notices show physical, preliminary written, main written and interview stages. A later recruitment may change their order or requirements; rely on its own notice and revised syllabus.
Eligibility
Check the exact post, year, and notification.
The August 2019 MPS advertisement required a recognised degree and specified age, height and endurance tests. Those figures are historical, not standing eligibility. Confirm the current MPS advertisement, applicable service rules, physical standards and relaxations before applying.
Important: This page is an orientation for students. The recruiting authority’s current notice, corrigenda, and official portal determine eligibility.
Selection process and subjects
Compare the main examination routes.
| Examination or post | Usual minimum qualification | Selection process | Main subjects |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPS eligibility and physical stage | Degree, age, citizenship, physical measurements and medical fitness must be checked against the current advertisement. | Physical efficiency/standards tests may be required before the written stages; follow the cycle-specific notice. | Prepare for the notified endurance and fitness standards alongside written study. Do not reuse 2019 thresholds without verification. |
| MPS preliminary, main and interview stages | Only candidates qualifying the relevant preceding stage proceed under the notified rules. | The 2019 recruitment used preliminary screening, Part-B mains and a later interview. Follow the current revised syllabus and programme. | Use the official stage-specific syllabus for general studies, languages, aptitude and any compulsory or optional main papers. Historical multi-subject compilations may not match a future pattern. |
