UPPRPB conducted the written examination on February 17 and 18, 2024, across the state. However, the government had to cancel the exam due to several reports of paper leaks during the test. The Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment & Promotion Board (UPPRB) has issued a statement about a fake notice circulating online that claims the UP Police Constable Exam will be held on June 29 and June 30, 2024.

The UPPRB clarified that these dates are not official and that they haven't announced any exam dates yet. Candidates should ignore any unofficial information and wait for the official announcement from the Board.
