The notification of the standard of physical efficiency test of Fire Officer II (FSSO) could not last even for 24 hours because if even the world record holder runner had come here, he would not have become a fire officer.

Amar Ujala published a news on the standards of physical efficiency test of FSSO in this notification. FSSO candidate will have to run 900 meters with a weight of 65 kg.

Now male candidates will have to complete the 900 meter race in one minute with a weight of 65 kg. A rule has been made for female candidates to complete the two km race in 15 minutes.
