RRB RPF SI Syllabus

The RPF Sub-Inspector (SI) examination 2027 is conducted by the Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) for recruitment to Sub-Inspector (Executive) posts in the Railway Protection Force (RPF) and Railway Protection Special Force (RPSF). RPF Sub-Inspectors are gazetted officer-level supervisors in the railway security force, responsible for supervising Constables and overseeing the protection of railway passengers and property.

The RPF SI examination pattern is identical in subject structure to the RPF Constable examination (same three subjects, same 120-question, 90-minute format) but is set at a higher difficulty level commensurate with the graduation-level qualification requirement. The minimum qualification for RPF SI is a Bachelor's Degree from a recognised university. The age limit is also different (20 to 28 years versus 18 to 28 for Constable).
