UPSC Delays CAPF 2026 Notification; Exam Date Remains Unchanged
The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has delayed the issuance of the notification for the CAPF Assistant Commandants (AC) Examination 2026. The notification, originally set for release on February 18, 2026, has been postponed due to administrative reasons.
According to an official announcement, the Commission confirmed that the Central Armed Police Forces (Assistant Commandants) Examination, 2026, will be announced at a later time. The updated notification will be made available on the official UPSC website once it is released.
As a result of this delay, the online application process for the UPSC CAPF AC Recruitment 2026 has not started. Candidates eager to apply are advised to frequently check the UPSC portal for announcements regarding the new notification date and application process.
Notably, the postponement does not impact the examination schedule. The UPSC calendar indicates that the CAPF Assistant Commandants written examination will proceed as planned on July 19, 2026.
Information concerning the total number of vacancies and their allocation within the Central Armed Police Forces will be disclosed in the revised notification. The application link will remain deactivated until the official advertisement is published, at which point the registration process will begin.
