Homeguard recruitment: 864 pass medicals, 22 seek re-test on 29 October
The Story in Brief
Homeguard recruitment medical exams have cleared 864 candidates in ten days across Agra, while 22 unsuccessful candidates have appealed for a re-test before the divisional medical board on 29 October. District Commandant Rahul Kumar said the Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment and Promotion Board shortlisted 1,232 candidates, and the district medical board has been testing them at Police Lines since 12 October.
Of 900 candidates called up by 21 October, 886 appeared and 14 were absent. Unsuccessful candidates' call letters are being distributed at Police Lines, Agra. Men's medical tests run until 22 October, women's tests run 23 to 25 October. Absent male candidates may still report on 22 October at 9 am with their original documents, but this is their final chance. Mobile phones, bags, watches and suspicious items are banned from the test premises.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The 22 appeals mean the district board's findings face a credibility check, but the re-tests scheduled for 29 October give unsuccessful candidates only one more chance under the divisional board. The 14 absentees among 900 called up also lost their window unless they report on 22 October, which is the final opportunity for men. The process leaves nearly 3 per cent of those summoned still unresolved, while 864 have already passed in ten days. The district commandant's statement confirms the medical phase is on track, but the narrow margin for re-testing and the absolute deadline for first-time absentees put pressure on individual applicants.
