About UP Home Guard

The Uttar Pradesh Home Guard Department is one of the country's largest auxiliary forces that supplements police work at district and state levels. Members assist in law-and-order duties, traffic regulation, disaster relief, election security and crowd management during festivals and other mass events. Although the force is auxiliary, Home Guards perform critical frontline duties — often alongside regular police and disaster-response teams. The department has focused on upgrading training, physical standards and allowances to professionalize the force. The UP Home Guard Bharti 2025 aims to strengthen grassroots security by recruiting thousands of disciplined and trained volunteers into active service.
