How to Apply This is an OFFLINE / WALK-IN recruitment. Physical presence at the designated venue is mandatory. Follow these steps: Visit the official website https://police.gujarat.gov.in and download the detailed notification for Bharuch Police Department Police Mitra recruitment. Note the exact date, time, and venue for walk-in registration/document verification. Prepare all original certificates (10th marksheet, caste certificate, domicile certificate, Aadhaar card, voter ID or PAN) and one attested copy of each document. Arrange one recent passport-size photograph (white background, 4×6 cm or as specified in notification) — bring at least 4–5 copies along with originals and attested photocopies. Arrange a signed declaration on plain paper (format and content as per notification) if required. Arrive at the designated venue at least 30 minutes before the specified registration time. Carry a government-issued photo ID (Aadhaar, voter ID, driving licence, or passport) for identity verification. Report to the registration counter, submit all documents in the prescribed order, fill out the on-site application form legibly in blue/black ink, and obtain a signed receipt/acknowledgement slip with your application number and important dates. Keep the acknowledgement receipt safe — it serves as proof of application and is required for all future correspondence and document verification rounds. Important: The notification does not yet specify the exact walk-in dates or venues. These are typically announced separately through the official website or district police office notice boards. Regularly check https://police.gujarat.gov.in for updates and confirm the venue details at least one week before the announced walk-in date.

Leaving sections blank or submitting forms with corrections, cutting, or overwriting often result in rejection. Arriving without proper identity proof: Walk-in recruitment requires valid government-issued photo ID (Aadhaar, voter ID, or PAN). Candidates without photo ID are turned away or face delays. Submitting documents in wrong order: The notification typically specifies a precise order (e.g., 10th, caste certificate, domicile, Aadhaar, application form). Deviating from this order may lead to processing delays or rejection. Missing attested copies: Many candidates bring only originals. Attested photocopies (certified by a gazetted o
