if you belong to schedule caste , you are eligible. otherwise you should have 165 cm minimum. this is for IPS post only.

for other upsc categories there is no specifications so you can write upsc exam n o for other services if qualified

Hi,

Physical Standards are required for Indian Police Services Exam which are following as :

1. Height Male - 165 cm and 160 cm for ST Category candidates.

2. Height Female - 150 cm and 145 cm for ST Category candidates

3. Chest Male - 84 cm and 5 cm expansion

4. Chest Female - 79 cm and 5 cm expansion

5. Eye Sight : 6/6 or 6/9 distant vision is decided for good eye and 6/12 or 6/9 declared for worst eye

6. Nasal : Candidate Male or Female must not stammer while speaking

For the IPS post you have to appear in the UPSC Civil Services exams

Minimum Height required for the IPS post

Male - 165 cm for General/SC/OBC candidate and minimum of 160 cm ST.
Female - 150 cm OBC/SC/General candidate and 145 cm ST.

So, if you belong to General and OBC AND SC category you cannot apply for thsi post

But with UPSC Civil services exams are held for 23 more posts like IAS, IFS,IRS etc
