Notification Ahead
The Staff Selection Commission is set to release the SSC GD Constable 2027 notification on 30 September 2026, as per the official SSC exam calendar.

This recruitment covers Constable (GD) posts across BSF, CISF, CRPF, ITBP, SSB, SSF, Rifleman (GD) in Assam Rifles, and Sepoy posts in the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) — permanent central government positions open to both men and women.
