Corroboration: 2 independent outlets

The West Bengal Police Recruitment Board (WBPRB) has tentatively scheduled the Final Written Examination for Constable and Lady Constable posts in Kolkata Police Recruitment 2024 for 29 November 2026. The one-hour test runs from 12:00 noon to 1:00 PM. The notice, numbered WBPRB/NOTICE-2026/21 and dated 29 October 2026, covers 3,734 vacancies, 3,464 for Constables and 270 for Lady Constables. Only candidates who qualified in the Preliminary Written Test and have also cleared the Physical Measurement Test (PMT) and Physical Efficiency Test (PET) are eligible. The board has not yet announced the admit card release date or examination centre details. Candidates are advised to monitor the official WBPRB website for updates because the 29 November date remains tentative.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Both pw.live and Adda247 carry identical wire copy from the West Bengal Police Recruitment Board notice, presenting the factual schedule without any slant. Neither outlet adds commentary, criticism, advocacy or framing beyond the official announcement. The coverage is uniform straight reporting: each source leads with the 29 November 2026 tentative date, the 12:00 noon to 1:00 PM timing, the 3,734 vacancies and the fact that the admit card release date remains unannounced. The only material difference is that Adda247 includes a Sunday, 1 November 2026 date that appears to be a typo for 29 November, pw.live consistently writes 29 November. The two sources thus agree on every operational detail and neither brings independent news judgement to the story.
