Bokaro Home Guard 2026 - Physical Test Marks, Hindi Writing Test and Selection Scheme

Published 13 Nov 2026 · Updated 13 Nov 2026

For the 199 Bokaro Home Guard posts (Advt 01/2026), the physical test has a 1-mile run, high jump, long jump and shot put. Rural and non-technical urban men get 20 marks for finishing the mile in 5 minutes or less and 10 marks for 5-6 minutes; slower than 6 minutes is unfit. For women the limits are 8 and 10 minutes. High and long jumps carry 5 to 10 marks by distance (men from 4 ft and 12 ft, women from 3 ft and 9 ft); shot put is 16 lb for men and 10 lb for women. Technically skilled urban candidates have easier limits (men 6/8 minutes, women 8/12 minutes). Those who pass then take a qualifying Hindi writing test (100 marks, pass 30; class 7 level for rural, class 10 for urban) and, for technical urban posts, a skill test (100 marks, pass 30). National/state sports winners get up to 6 extra marks.
