💡 Selection Tip: The 1.6 KM run in 5 minutes is quite challenging compared to other law enforcement standards (usually 7-8 minutes). It is highly recommended to start stamina training at the Quetta Race Course or a local ground immediately. For the interview, be prepared to answer basic questions about the railway stations located between Quetta and Chaman.
