Punjab Police’s 2021 recruitment for Sub Inspectors in the Technical and Support Services (TSS) cadre advertised 267 posts—not 297. The application window ran from 9 September to 10 October 2021, and the computer-based test (CBT) was scheduled for 24–30 September 2022. Both dates are historical; this is not an open recruitment.
How many TSS Sub Inspector vacancies were advertised?
The supported total is 267 Sub Inspector vacancies. Punjab Police’s public notice gives that figure, and contemporaneous reporting by Scroll also reports 267. The 297-post figure in the original title is not supported by these sources and should be corrected rather than treated as the vacancy count.
The same Punjab Police notice separately listed 2,340 Constable vacancies in the TSS cadre. That is a different recruitment post and should not be added to the Sub Inspector total.
What were the application dates?
The Punjab Police recruitment portal listed online applications opening at 09:00 on 9 September 2021 and closing at 11:59 p.m. on 10 October 2021. The window has passed; applications cannot be made under this historical recruitment notice.

When was the CBT scheduled?
A Punjab Police public notice scheduled the computer-based examination for 24–30 September 2022. This was the published schedule, not evidence that the examination was held on every listed date or that the recruitment process concluded then.
What did the selection process and eligibility involve?
Contemporaneous secondary reporting described recruitment across 18 domains and specializations or functions. It reported a first phase with Test 1 and Test 2, followed by a second phase involving physical measurement, physical screening, and document scrutiny.
Rank #2
That reporting also summarized eligibility as age 18–28 as of 1 January 2021, with relaxations for reserved categories; a recognized university degree in a notified discipline; a Punjabi-language qualification at matriculation or equivalent; and minimum height thresholds of 5 feet 4 inches for men and 5 feet for women. These are secondary-source summaries, not a substitute for the official advertisement. Anyone checking a past application requirement should consult the original notice and its instructions for the exact discipline, category, and physical standards.

The cited public notice and contemporaneous coverage establish the vacancy total and scheduled dates, but they do not establish final merit or appointment outcomes. They also do not provide a verified breakdown of the 267 posts by specialization or reservation category. Do not infer those details from the total vacancy count.
