Don't do that.

Police enquiry will be triggered at your hometown. And they will ask why you choose Punjab PSK being resident of the UP.

Also, if you will choose two different address i.e. Permenant as UP and Present as Punjab, then 2 Police enquiry will be triggered.

Use hometown address as your permanent address (if it is) & your current address as your present address. You should have proof of present address like notarized rent agreement or your bank account passbook of any nationalised bank that clearly mentions your present address. Also make sure that your bank passbook contains your passport size photograph and get it attested by your bank manager with seal.

Local Police will raise concerns about it, i.e. Why PSK Punjab when you are a resident of the UP?
Happened to me to even use PSK 300KMs from my hometown. Had to provide 3 years of documents and all to prove that my present and permanent address are the same.

I applied for a new passport in Longding Arunachal Resident through PSK Dibrugarh on 22 Feb 2024.

The police verification PS Tissa Longding didn't happen at all till 3 months from the date of new passport application.

Suddenly it was completed & done without physical visit after 3 months on 25 May 2024 and a new passport was issued and delivered on 30 May 2024.

My question is - Is this normal pattern in Arunachal ?

If again I have to apply a new passport for someone else, Will that (Delayed Police Verification)happen again and shall I go with Tatkal or this time it will be done sooner with regular application this time ?
