Age Relaxation Proposal for Government Jobs in Jammu and Kashmir

Exciting News for Jammu and Kashmir Youth

Jammu and Kashmir Jobs: Youth in Jammu and Kashmir may soon benefit from an age relaxation policy for government employment. A proposal has been submitted to the Lieutenant Governor, which, if approved, could apply to all government positions in the region. An MLA from the ruling National Conference shared this significant update on social media, indicating that the government is moving forward with this initiative.

Details of the Proposal

Proposal Sent to Lieutenant Governor
Tanveer Sadiq, the MLA representing Zadibal, announced via social media that the Jammu and Kashmir government has sanctioned the relaxation of the upper age limit for government job recruitment in the Union Territory. He mentioned that the Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah, has endorsed this age relaxation and has forwarded the proposal to the Raj Bhavan for the approval of Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha.

Who Will Benefit?

Which youth will benefit?
Should Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha approve this initiative, it will provide significant relief to many young individuals in the valley who have surpassed the age limit for government jobs. Often, those preparing for these roles become discouraged when they age out of eligibility and are compelled to seek employment elsewhere. Age relaxation would offer them a renewed opportunity to pursue government positions.

Job Openings on the Horizon

Vacations may be open for several positions.
There are indications that multiple job vacancies may soon be available in Jammu and Kashmir. The Omar Abdullah administration has confirmed that recruitment efforts are ongoing. Additionally, the Jammu and Kashmir Services Selection Board (JKSSB) is actively hiring for various roles, including a recent announcement for the position of Sub-Inspector in the Telecommunications Department.
