Maharashtra SRPF Invites Application for 19 Cook, Sweeper Recruitment 2022

The State Reserve Police Force or SRPF as it is popularly known was raised on 6th March 1948 as a Special Armed Police Force of the State of Maharashtra. In order to make Maharashtra self-sufficient in matters of Internal Security, two units were raised at Purandar and Sambre (Belgaum, Karnataka). After the re-organization of States, the strength of the force increased with the amalgamation of the armed Police Units from Old Hyderabad State Police Force and Central Province and Berar. During the mid-1970s, the onerous duties of guarding vital installations like BARC and the Bombay Airport also led to the expansion of the force. The advent of Naxalism in Maharashtra in the form of the Peoples War Group brought about further expansion in the SRPF units and Groups were raised at Hingoli and Gadchiroli.
