Section 10(1) of the Bihar Police Act, 2007, as substituted by the Bihar Police (Amendment) Act, 2022, fixes the tenure of police personnel from Inspector to Constable level at 5 years in a District, 8 years in the Range and 8 years in Units as a whole (formerly 6 years in the district, 8 years in the range and 10 years in the zone).

The zone tier no longer appears in the section, so the 6/8/10-year combination is not the current rule. The 3/5/8-year and 5/10/12-year combinations do not match the section either.
