SSC CHT Paper 2 Results Released: 1,722 Candidates Qualify for CRPF Sub-Inspector Roles

The Staff Selection Commission has officially declared the results for the Combined Hindi Translator (CHT) Paper 2 exam, paving the way for successful candidates to move toward physical testing for the CRPF.

The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has officially published the results for the Combined Hindi Translator (CHT) Paper 2 examination on its primary website. Following the rigorous evaluation process, 1,722 candidates have successfully cleared this stage, marking a significant step forward in the recruitment drive for Sub-Inspector (Hindi Translator) positions within the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF).

This result follows the descriptive examination held on December 14, 2025. The journey for these candidates began earlier that year, with the Paper 1 results being announced on November 4, 2025. At that time, 3,642 candidates had cleared the initial screening, setting the stage for the descriptive Paper 2. As reports from outlets like Jagran Josh and NDTV highlight, the transition from paper-based testing to the next phase is now underway for the shortlisted group.

Breakdown of Performance and Cut-offs

The commission maintained distinct qualifying criteria based on candidate categories. For the Unreserved (UR) category, a cut-off of 60 marks was applied, resulting in 309 successful candidates. Meanwhile, those in the OBC and EWS categories faced a cut-off of 50 marks, with 588 and 346 candidates passing, respectively. Candidates from the SC and ST categories required a minimum of 40 marks to qualify, with 343 and 136 individuals crossing that threshold. Overall, the commission enforced a minimum qualifying cut-off percentage of 30% for UR, 25% for OBC/EWS, and 20% for all other categories.

What Lies Ahead for Candidates

For the 1,722 successful aspirants, the recruitment process now shifts from academic assessment to physical evaluation. Candidates who specifically opted for the CRPF during their application process and have now been shortlisted will be required to appear for the Physical Efficiency Test (PET) and the Physical Standard Test (PST). These tests are critical components of the selection process, ensuring that recruits meet the physical rigors required for duty in the paramilitary forces.

The announcement has been widely disseminated across social media platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp, as candidates scrambled to verify their status on the official portal. While the digital footprint of this news has been expansive—with various news networks covering the update—aspirants are advised to rely solely on the official SSC website for authentic documentation and future updates regarding the PET/PST schedule.

This recruitment cycle remains a vital opportunity for linguistic professionals seeking a career in national security. As the selection process narrows, the focus now turns to the physical capabilities of those who have demonstrated their proficiency in Hindi translation.
