About Maharashtra Police Bharti
Maharashtra Police recruits Police Constables (Police Shipai) unit by unit: each police commissionerate, district police and railway police unit fills its own vacancies under the Maharashtra Police Constables (Recruitment) Rules, 2011, through a selection board, with applications taken on a common state portal. For Police Bharti 2025 (the 2024-25 recruitment, 45 units) applications ran from 29-10-2025 to 30-11-2025.
