For the backlog vacancies (Advt. No. 05/2026), candidates must additionally have a minimum of two continuous years of service as a Para Teacher under the Jharkhand Shiksha Pariyojna Parishad.
Age Limit
Candidates must be between 21 and 35 years of age as on 1 August 2026. Age relaxation is applicable to reserved categories as per Jharkhand government norms — check the official notification for exact relaxation figures.
