English Language appears in the Maharashtra Police Constable syllabus below. The official pattern does not break it into its own timed section, so treat the whole topic list as fair game.
Reading comprehension and the cloze test decide this section, and both reward reading widely more than memorising rules. Build a daily reading habit, learn to spot the grammatical error patterns that recur, and treat vocabulary as something absorbed in context rather than crammed from a list.
