Why Does APSP 4th IR Battalion Rajamahendravaram Matter?
The 4th (IR) Battalion of Andhra Pradesh Special Police is a specialised unit under the Andhra Pradesh Police Department, based at Rajamahendravaram in East Godavari district. It supports internal security, law-and-order and specialised operations in the region.
Working here gives candidates direct exposure to police administrative and support functions. The posts are outsourcing in nature, so long-term permanence is not guaranteed. Still, the fixed ₹15,000 remuneration and local preference make it a practical option for candidates seeking government-linked work near home.
The SahisarkariJobs.in Analyst’s Take
Compared with other recent East Godavari outsourcing drives (DCHS, GMC Rajamahendravaram or NHM posts), this APSP notification stands out for its clear skill-test weightage and explicit local-candidate preference under the Presidential Order.
Best fit: Local candidates from erstwhile East Godavari who have practical skills in cooking, laundry, barbering or basic office work and are comfortable with a fixed outsourcing remuneration.
Who should skip: Candidates looking for permanent government service with pension or those unwilling to undergo a practical skill test. Higher-qualified graduates may find the pay and nature of work limiting.
Practical tip: Prepare your Class IV–X study certificates and get every document attested by a Gazetted Officer well before the last date — incomplete applications are summarily rejected.
What Documents Are Required?
Self-attested copies (attested by a Gazetted Officer) of:
- Filled application form with passport-size photo
- SSC / equivalent marks memo
- Marks memos of the qualifying examination
- Pass certificate of the prescribed qualification
- Latest caste certificate (BC/SC/ST) or EWS certificate
- Study certificates from Class IV to X (for local status)
- Aadhaar (mandatory)
- Experience certificate (if any)
Missing caste/EWS certificate → treated as Open Category. Missing study certificates → treated as Non-Local. Incomplete applications are rejected.
What Happens After Selection?
- Shortlisting based on written / skill-test marks (1:5 ratio).
- Interview and preparation of final merit list.
- Document verification of selected candidates.
- Medical fitness and character verification.
- Issue of engagement order on an outsourcing basis.
- Joining the 4th IR Battalion, APSP, Rajamahendravaram and commencement of duties under the terms of the outsourcing engagement.
The engagement is contractual. Continuity depends on the unit’s requirement and satisfactory performance.
