The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has revised the exam date for the Constable (GD) in Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs), SSF, and Rifleman (GD) in Assam Rifles Examination, 2026. According to the official notice, the SSC GD examination, which was earlier scheduled to be held on May 28, will now be conducted on May 27, 2026.
The one-day rescheduling of the GD Constable exam was made after the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) issued a memorandum revising the date of the Id-ul-Zuha (Bakrid) holiday.
SSC has advised candidates to take note of the revised schedule and appear for the GD examination accordingly. The commission also informed that SSC GD admit cards for the recruitment exam will be released 2–3 days before the revised exam date.
Candidates who applied for the SSC GD constable recruitment exam will be able to download the SSC GD 2026 admit card on the official SSC website through the candidates’ login module.
