In a major development, the Ministry of Home Affairs on Saturday decided to conduct the Constable (GD) Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) exams in 13 regional languages. It will give an impetus to the participation of local youth in CAPFs, according to MHA.
From now on, the question paper for CAPF examination for the Constable rank will also be set in these languages other than Hindi and English - Bengali, Gujarati, Marathi, Malayalam, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Odia, Urdu, Punjabi, Manipuri and Konkani.
The MHA has asked the states/UTs to launch campaigns to encourage youth to take benefit of this opportunity.
The CAPF examinations are held by the centre for recruiting police personnel to the central police force. The new notification issued will now enable more local candidates to take part and prove their mettle.
