The Department of Rural Development & Panchayati Raj (RDD&PR) requested the Jammu and Kashmir Services Selection Board (JKSSB) to fill 1395 Panchayat Secretary positions.
The JKSSB advertised these positions on May 26, 2022, with a cut off date of July 16, 2022. The selection process involved a written exam and document verification. The written exam was conducted on December 10, 2023. Document verification was conducted in January 2024.
A Selection Committee was formed to prepare the final selection list. Additional document verification was conducted on January 23, 2024. A Provisional Selection List was prepared for the 1395 positions.
However Due to vacancies arising from non-joining, non-submission of PVRs, or non-response to appointment notices, the RDD&PR has requested a waitlist of 345 candidates (201 for Jammu Division and 144 for Kashmir Division).
