Sir, I’m a first-class BCA graduate and always dreamed of being a police officer. However, in 2012, I visited the police station to meet a neighbor who was wrongly accused of stealing 8 motorcycles and charged under the gangster act. The police also filed the same charges against me. Will this affect my chances of becoming a police officer until these charges are cleared?
Best Answer
Under Indian law, a criminal record can significantly hinder your chances of becoming a police officer, even if the charges are eventually dropped. The police department will likely conduct a thorough background check, and even being charged, regardless of the outcome, can raise serious concerns about your suitability for the role.
