KSP Constable Result 2026: Download 3,991 Civil Police Constable Scorecard, District-Wise Merit List PDF & Physical Test Standards
Authority: Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) / KSP | Objection Deadline: 17 August 2026 | Total Posts: 3,991
Definition: KSP Constable Result 2026 is the official written examination result and scorecard released by the Karnataka Examinations Authority on cetonline.karnataka.gov.in for 3,991 Civil Police Constable posts. Qualified candidates move forward to the Physical Endurance and Measurement Test stage of selection.
KSP Constable Result 2026 landed on 17 August 2026, as a provisional scorecard for the Civil Police Constable written examination held on 2 August. Karnataka State Police confirmed 3,991 posts under this drive, split between the Kalyana Karnataka cadre (596 posts) and the Mikkili/Okkalida cadre (3,395 posts). That's not a small drive. It's one of the largest single-cycle constable recruitments in the state this year.
Notice this essential selection rule: clearing the written exam only qualifies you for the physical test; final merit is confirmed after ET/PST. A high written score alone doesn't book your seat. It books your shot at the ground.

Two cadres. One written exam. One provisional scorecard.
Don't Confuse This With the Kannada Language Test Result
A real confusion point: An earlier Kannada Language Proficiency Test result was declared on 23 July 2026, for a test held on 19 July. That's a separate, earlier qualifying stage. This current result — the provisional scorecard released 17 August — is for the actual written examination held on 2 August. If you're looking at a July date and wondering why your name isn't there, you may be checking the wrong stage.
Written Exam vs Physical Test: What Actually Decides Merit
Comparison: The Written Exam score is the merit-deciding component — your marks here determine your ranking. The Physical Endurance & Measurement Test (ET/PST) is strictly qualifying, carrying no marks of its own, but failing even one physical event knocks you out regardless of your written score.
Physical test (ET & PST) carries no marks but is strictly qualifying; failing even one physical event leads to immediate disqualification. A strong written scorecard and a failed high jump attempt end the same way — out of the process.

Objecting to Your Provisional Result
If your scorecard looks wrong, you're not stuck. Visit the objection portal at cetonline.karnataka.gov.in/kea, enter your Register Number, candidate name, and exam date, then select the relevant paper and version. Provide a brief description of your objection and upload supporting documents in PDF format, up to 1 MB per file and 5 files total. Objections without supporting documents get rejected outright, and objections against the already-finalized answer key aren't entertained at this stage.
Physical Endurance & Measurement Test: What to Expect
Verify these figures against your official call letter: Reported benchmarks include a 1,600m run in 6.5 minutes for men and a 400m run in 2 minutes for women, alongside high jump and shot put standards. These specific numbers weren't independently confirmed against a public KSP document this session — treat them as reference figures and cross-check against the official ET/PST notice before starting your physical preparation.
If your roll number's in the shortlist for the physical stage, start ground training today rather than waiting for the official call letter. Endurance and jump technique both take weeks of consistent practice, not a last-minute push.
