ASI / Sub-Inspector (BPS-11/14) Common Paper 2026 — 100 MCQs for Police & FIA — SahulatHub

The posts of Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI BPS-11) and Sub-Inspector (SI BPS-14) are among the most prestigious and competitive jobs in Pakistan's law enforcement agencies. These positions are regularly announced by the Punjab Police, Sindh Police, KPK Police, FIA (Federal Investigation Agency), Motorway Police, and Anti-Corruption Establishment.

The basic qualification for ASI is generally Intermediate (FA/FSc), while for Sub-Inspector, it is Graduation (BA/BSc/BS). Because these are officer-level entry posts, the written test is notably tougher than that of a Constable. The test assesses a candidate's analytical skills, general knowledge, and command over the English language.

Testing agencies such as PPSC, FPSC, and NTS typically follow this pattern for law enforcement exams:

  • English (Synonyms, Antonyms, Prepositions, Sentence Correction): 20% - 30%
