Slated to be held on April 27, the recruitments of the constables will now be held on July 30.

The official reason given for the postponement is "administrative exigencies". The posts of constables were advertised in October last andthe recruitments for the posts were meant to be made in the month of December. However, the recruitments were put off to February and then again to April. The recruitments of Assistant Sub-Inspectors too were put off on two occasions before they eventually began a few days ago.
