Delhi Police Ministerial Head Constable AWO/TPO

About This Exam

The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) conducts recruitment for two distinct Delhi Police Head Constable posts: Head Constable (Ministerial), a clerical-administrative role, and Head Constable (AWO/TPO) — Assistant Wireless Operator/Tele-Printer Operator, a technical communications role. Both posts are open to 10+2 pass candidates, though AWO/TPO also accepts an equivalent National Trade Certificate in the relevant trade.

Selection for both posts runs through four stages: a Computer-Based Examination (CBE) of 100 questions/100 marks in 90 minutes, a Physical Endurance and Measurement Test (PE&MT), a Typing Test on computer, and a Computer (Formatting) Test. Candidates must clear each stage in sequence to remain in contention.

Speed Requirement

For Delhi Police Head Constable (Ministerial), candidates are generally expected to demonstrate 30 WPM in English or 25 WPM in Hindi during the typing test. For AWO/TPO, candidates must qualify the prescribed computer proficiency requirements mentioned in the official notification.

Result & Scoring

Every practice session on aitypingguru.com gives you an instant scorecard with:


Key depressions completed and time taken
Gross and Net WPM equivalent
Total mistakes, with a running count against the 25-mistake disqualification threshold
Accuracy percentage


For the Ministerial post, treat your practice speed as something to actively maximize, not just clear — since real marks are on the line. For AWO/TPO, use the same scorecard to comfortably clear the qualifying threshold, and double-check your notification for whether marks apply in your recruitment cycle.

Preparation Tips

Both Delhi Police Head Constable posts require clearing every stage — CBE, PE&MT, Typing Test, and Computer Formatting Test — in sequence; failing any one stage ends your candidature for that cycle. The key structural difference to remember is that the typing test contributes real marks to the final result for Head Constable (Ministerial), while the Computer Formatting Test remains qualifying only for both posts. Always verify the current year's exact marking scheme, key depression count, and mistake threshold against the latest official SSC notification, since these details can be revised between recruitment cycles.
